  • Mastodon: Like Twitter. You can follow people, or #hashtags.

  • Lemmy: Like Reddit. Subreddits on Lemmy are "communities". Different instances have different communities.

  • Kbin: Both Lemmy and Mastodon combined. Subreddits on Kbin are called "magazines". Posts can be made to magazines directly, plus Mastodon posts with #hashtags will be automatically cross-posted to the appropriate community.

All of them are part of the "fediverse". Because of this, they can all talk to each other. You can follow Lemmy communities and Kbin magazines from Mastodon. Kbin allows you to follow Mastodon users from Kbin.

All that changes is how the content is displayed. Lemmy displays it like Reddit. Mastodon displays it like Twitter. Kbin has different tabs that let you switch between both.
