What do you think about this graphic?

It should give an easy overview of the architecture of the Fediverse and what it differentiates from old social media.

    This doesn’t explain things well. Lemmy is like a bunch of Reddits communicating with each other. The graphic makes it seem like there is just one Lemmy. Also, are Lemmy posts on Mastodon? Mastodon was largely empty last I checked.

    Edit: I just now noticed the second Lemmy

      Mastodon users can subscribe to Lemmy communities I think, but it doesn’t really work very well. The Mastodon feed isn’t really made to support threaded content so all the Lemmy comments will fill and mess up your feed.

        I think the ATProtocol is better when it comes to connecting between different social media types. But I think ActivityPub makes better use of different servers.

        Though I think something like Lemmy is difficult for both because of how different it is from most other social media types.
