From news, to shitposting, to memes, to more shitposting, Lemmy feels vibrant, active, lighthearted, fun and even powerful. Mastodon feels like a fucking funeral.

I think it’s the gamification. Mastodon degamifies Twitter in a way Lemmy can’t really do with the classic Reddit system.
Votes go up, votes go down, you can see people winning and losing here. It’s fun, even if it’s in a bad way.
I like how votes have no sway in moderating and discoverability. It keeps people honest instead of just trying to game the system.
