As far as I can tell from my venture into Mastodon's feeds, the demographics of that part of Fediverse isn't that different from what Lemmy has: the same political takes, FOSS stuff, "big corpos bad", etc.

I wonder, is there anything that Mastodon excels at that Lemmy just doesn't provide? For example, I noticed that there are game developers and artists posting their stuff on Mastodon. Not many game developers (or any creatives, really) on Lemmy though.

It can interact with peertube, pixelfed, miskey, and many more things. Lemmy only really sees the threadiverse part of the fediverse.

But he interface of mastodon isn't threaded, so it's unusable to me. I was point to Sharkey and akkoma, which I might try instead, but I feel quite comfortable here, honestly.

Don't PT channels appear as communities on Lemmy? I feel like I heard it years ago but never got to actually use it as I've never found anything interesting on PeerTube.

It did but I believe the federation broke at some point and never got fixed.

Lemmy doesn't work with Peertube and it doesn't seem like there's any importance given to it.
