Hello, I’m sorry in advance if this is a noob question. I am new to Lemmy and the Fediverse.
As far as I understand, Lemmy is part of the Fediverse, but if I search for “Lemmy” here it will not find it. It seems to be full of instances from Mastodon.
Can someone help me understand why Lemmy isn’t there? Thank you!
@Mango7874 Lemmy and Mastodon are different project but both speak the same protocol (the same “language”) so messages can be exchanged between both. Kinda like following a Twitter user using a Facebook account or a Youtube account, and still being able to like and comment. This is the magic trick of the Fediverse: multiple websites, multiple servers, different interfaces, but all using the same protocol (speaking the same language)
