Question From Former Redditor
I came over from Reddit and I am confused!

Firstly, is Lemmy, Mastodon, and Kbin the same?

Secondly, can I see the same content on Kbin as I would if I was on, say, Lemmy? Like a “cross-post”. I’ve seen some posts where someone says “replying from Lemmy” on Kbin. So would I be seeing the same exact posts on Kbin as I would Lemmy/Mastodon?

I made accounts on all 3 but I am totally lost and confused. Can someone ELI5 (or something) to help me better understand?

    P.s. is this post even allowed? I don’t know what I’m doing if you can’t tell. :, (

P.p.s. I am on mobile so if formatting is an issue or weird, that may be why…

Thank you kindly in advance, anyone!

    This is a great explanation!

    Lemmy is like reddit

    tbh I’d say that Lemmy is closer to traditional forum systems than it is to Reddit.

    For mastodon users, they simply see this as a “tweet” you made (as if you were on twitter).

    Mastodon calls them “toots” :)

      That’s hilarious. I think I’ve come to the right place
