How does lemmy fit into the fediverse?
Sorry, I am really new to the idea of the fediverse. So, it is about standartisation for social media protocols so I can interact with users on another side that uses the same standard. Does this mean if I post something on lemmy I can find it on Mastodon, or is it only certain features? I guess I dont understand how this applies to the every day use of there application

It's not a perfect fit, so if you want to use both Lemmy and Mastodon I strongly advice you to have an account in each.
That said, you can follow Lemmy users or communities on Mastodon, likes made on Mastodon to Lemmy posts equate to upvotes here. If you reply to a comment sent from Mastodon, the Mastodon user will see it. But to fully enjoy both, you need 2 accounts.
