Lemmy is a link-aggregator and the Template:Internal Link's replacement for Reddit.
What does Lemmy feel like?
Lemmy is similar to sites like Reddit, Lobste.rs or Hacker News: You subscribe to communities that you're interested in, post links and discussions and vote and comment on them.
Communities are similar to forum categories, so Lemmy can be used as a forum.
Since it's part of the Template:Internal Link different Lemmy instances can communicate with each other and to some degree, with the rest of the Fediverse, but discoverability between Lemmy and other parts of the Fediverse is limited.
Template:Internal Link users can take part in Lemmy discussions and subscribe to Lemmy communities. Lemmy doesn't support hashtags as Mastodon yet. Also Lemmy uses Markdown and pictures in a way, that other parts of the Fediverse have trouble displaying.
