Lemmy isn’t the only Threadiverse server implementation, though it’s the most-widely used. There’s kbin, of which kbin.social is the largest instance, mbin, of which fedia.io is the largest example – and the user you’re talking to is on fedia.io – and some others.
Maybe its communities but that's a bit weird too because in the end it's more the ActivityPub protocol that we all share the use of. Ultimately I'm neither on Lemmy nor Mastodon, but their content gets federated with the platform I'm using.

Oh, interesting! Thanks for enlightening me!

Because our servers & software that we're using are federated.

Well you use it passively at least

If you post a comment to a Lemmy instance, are you using Lemmy?
possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 7 months ago
Federation

Only if I do it through Lemmy (the software). Or would you say you are on mbin because you replied to my comment?
DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 7 months ago
Hmm, probably not. If I was on a community based on mbin though, maybe?
