I know there are posts out there explaining this quite well, but I would love an ELI5 version. What is Lemmy and the Fediverse?

I’m not understanding this either. Do I see posts made by Lemmy.ml when I’m Lemmy.world? If I subscribe to a group like memes can people with a Lemmy.ml account also join it? Or is their meles group a different one?
I’ve learned a lot since I first posted lol! So first I started filtering my front page by “all” instead of Local, which will then show other instances. To subscribe and post to another instance’s community, you can search [email protected] in your instance’s search to subscribe and post. It seems difficult and clunky to me to discover and subscribe to other communities, unless someone has an easier way? But to answer your question, AFAIK, yes lemmy.world’s meme community is entirely separate from lemmy.ml’s, but you can still subscribe and post to either one.
Thank you very much for explaining this! So I’ll search the other communities. Or is it smarter to also join lemme.ml? Since I’ve got no idea which other communities ml has. Or does ml have a homepage with all their subs on it like lemme.world has that I’m able to browse?
It seems like lemmy.ml is larger and more popular, but right now they’re having server issues. I tried to make an account but couldn’t, so I’m just sticking to world for now. If you just go to lemmy.ml you’ll see all their communities and then you have to search lemmy.world to subscribe to them
