Mastodon is primarily a microblogging social media platform akin to Twitter. The other two are primarily multi-forum board akin to Reddit.

All three rely on the ActivityPub protocol, so there is some intercommunication between them (esp. between Lemmy and Kbin). That's why they're often referenced in the same breath. That, and most websites operating under these standards are not run for commercial profit.
