Sorry, I am really new to the idea of the fediverse. So, it is about standartisation for social media protocols so I can interact with users on another side that uses the same standard. Does this mean if I post something on lemmy I can find it on Mastodon, or is it only certain features? I guess I dont understand how this applies to the every day use of there application

Think that in the background Lemmy and Mastodon uses the same protocol, which means that you can consume content from one to another.

What changes is the ui, where Lemmy organizes the content in a reddit-like experience and Mastodon is closer to Twitter
