I feel like Mastodon is just more well known than Lemmy, which makes sense based on the two userbases

Mastodon also has a Weird And Scary reputation because journalists didn't understand it. It's interesting how they now regularly tout Pixelfed as an "Instagram alternative" but Mastodon still has the stench of "too techie". I'm starting to think it's a good thing Lemmy has not yet had it's moment in the sun because it means the Mastodon team did the heavy lifting for the entire Fediverse.

email is also more well known but very few people would ever suggest moving to a fucking mailing list

How many people use mailing lists today?
