If the Fediverse is planet earth. Lemmy is 1 country, each server instance is like a village town or city. Other countries where you can talk to follow users etc are Mastodon, Pixelfed, Misskey/Calckey, Peertube, Friendica, etc Like following Twitter users replying etc from inside Reddit.
I thought of it this way too and I think as long as people can get the gist we should be all good, though for me personally I prefer using the planet analogy considering all of these platforms are on the Fedi-universe, and trying out different platforms like Mastodon feels like it's "on a whole other planet" as a less tech-savvy person
