Way to make me feel silly for having both an account on both a Mastodon server and a Lemmy server! ;)
I love both Mastodon and Lemmy, but they usually don't federate very well with each other, so one cannot replace the other: Lemmy users cannot see microblog posts which aren't connected to any community and Mastodon doesn't show the body of Lemmy posts. Currently trying out Friendica, which manages all parts of the Fediverse reasonably well.

Yea. Generally a good demonstration of how the promise of the fediverse isn’t really there yet.
Lemmy does groups and mastodon does users with neither really understanding the other.
I think there’s more scope for lemmy to cover the user side of social media than mastodon the groups side. Kbin is an example of a continuing effort to do that.
If some keen devs got involved, I’d suspect lemmy could add some good user based functionality.The core devs have recognised it’d be good.
