@gigachad Why do you think that's exaggerated? ... almost everything is connected, isn't it?

Well, I am not really familiar with other fediverse services, so maybe Lemmy is a special case. But I can't comment on peertube or follow someone on Mastodon. In theory it is connected, but in reality it's not fully implemented yet.

@gigachad Yes, Lemmy really is a kind of special case in the Fediverse. From Lemmy, you can only post or comment in threads that are in groups (i.e. Lemmy, Piefed, mbin, Friendica groups) and can't follow individual accounts.
Of the others, groups are the exception, while Lemmy specialises in them. In this respect, Lemmy can do less here, but it is more clearly structured.
