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.

You can paste a link to a Lemmy post in the Mastodon search bar, which will get the post to show up on Mastodon. You can then interact with it in any way (reply, boost, etc.)
