Codeberg was asking about this. The linked toot by a commenter points to :

No, there are a number of differences. There's questions & answers under which there are comments, and a bunch of other functionality. It's so different to a standard threaded forum that you may as well build a new system from scratch. I honestly think it would be less work than trying to shoehorn lemmy into this role, and have another fediverse ecosystem built around it.
