What I like most about #Lemmy is that it is a content-orientated entrance to the Fediverse and that the content is structured accordingly, a kind of forum structure.
Most Fediverse services are account-orientated and (especially with #Mastodon)) the content is too mixed up for me and I miss the context.
The term "community" is somewhat ambiguous here: the one "Lemmy community" doesn't really exist, because the whole Fediverse is the community. It's not limited to Lemmy users and can't be separated. At the same time, there are the various groups/topics, which are also called "communities".
Thanks for the clarification. I'm still a little insecure about the nomenclature; also, my interface is in German, so I'm not sure if a "Beitrag" is actually a "post" and so on... My question aimed at "the one Lemmy community" – as far as I can see, it's not very easy to really participate on lemmy from e.g. a Mastodon account. But please correct me if I'm wrong – part of the fedivoyage is finding out how good the softwares federate...
@[email protected] @caos Ooooh, turns out, it's easier than I thought! (writing here from Mastodon :D)
@[email protected] @caos I even see the lemmy upvotes as favs on Mastodon. But not the downvotes :D
