I still don't even know what the servers on lemmy are, each "subreddit" is a different server?

It's like each server is it's own reddit and that server can have it's own subreddits. You can start a subreddit (community) with the same name on two different servers even.

The weirdness is, each server can talk to the other one so it doesn't matter which one you are a member of. You can see all of them.

So lemmy.world is a lemmy server, lemmy is the protocol?

ActivityPub is the protocol. https://activitypub.rocks/
