Lemmy appears to be very similiar to Mastodon, with decentralised servers to prevent musky spezulence.

Just a bit confused as i’ve tried Mastodon using the Tusky app and it felt like twitter but decentralised, whilst Lemmy feels like reddit but decentralised but language such as fediverse is shared.

    Lemmy is communities. Like Reddit. You can curate a list of communities you subscribe to.

    Mastodon is microblogging. Like Twitter. You can curate a list of bloggers you subscribe to.

    Because they are decentralized, you can include off-server sources in your subscription list, for both your mastodon account and your lemmy account. Because mastodon and lemmy use same activitypub protocol, you can include lemmy communities in your curate mastodon list of subscribed sources. Or a mastodon microblogger in your curated lemmy feed. Also you can reply using your existing account to a post in that feed, including from the other service.
