Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

The beta for groups will release later this week, which won't be federated initially. Federation will be added afterwards.

Looks like it will have some interesting features like videos, polls, and events, as well as moderator tools like limiting what a user can do.

A menu in Pixelfed titled 'Limit Interactions' which shows that a moderator can prevent specific users from posting, commenting, or liking posts and comments.

Maybe this isn't the best thread to ask this but I'll try: is there a way to connect my Mastodon, Pixelfed and Lemmy accounts? I subscribed to Mastodon and Lemmy with my mail but I wish they were more "connceted" with each other, like I could share with ease a post I create here to Mastodon and viceversa. I would also love to create a Pixelfed account. Sorry if the question sounds a lot stupid, I'm still trying to grasp the idea of how Federated internet works.
