This is where Matrix comes in. Fully open source and supports federation the way Lemmy does. (Even more effectively, actually.)

Matrix is more of a Discord alternative than a Whatsapp alternative though unless I'm mistaken?

For Element, Matrix' flagship client, you are correct.

Anyone can build their own clients, however, and apps like FluffyChat & Syphon aim to mimick the look and feel of WhatsApp.
