I want to take a crash course in Fediverse. I was browsing stuff on Mastadon and voila! I found these communities on Mastadon but I wasn't able to post anything, but I was however able to reply to stuff. I don't know how this works. I won't be reading it now, but I want to know more about Fediverse, so a book or documentary, something really detailed would help (just don't send me a website please :')

If you are trying to interact with Lemmy communities, youโd be better off using a Lemmy account instead of Mastodon.
Up to some degree Mastodon and Lemmy can interact between them, but that will certainly makes things a lot harder for you.
This is ironically is the biggest problem with the fediverse in my opinion, eveything is connected and interoperable in some way but also not fully. It's confusing and probably puts a lot of people off
100% this. I've worked in tech for over a decade now and feel like a damn boomer trying to figure out how to make lemmy and kbin work together.
