Ce sont des synonymes (même si parfois, selon le contexte, il peut y avoir quelques nuances).
Par exemple :
"Il est juste 16 heures." = "Il est seulement 16 heures."
Les phrases sont synonymes.
MAIS "Je viens juste d'arriver." insiste sur le fait que je suis arrivé(e) À L'INSTANT alors que "Je viens seulement d'arriver." accentue le fait que la seule chose que je viens de faire, c'est ARRIVER, et rien d'autre. La nuance est légère mais c'est peut-être bon à savoir ^^
J'espère t'avoir aidé(e) !

Seulement et juste peuvent être synonymes signifiant uniquement:
1. Je mange seulement des pommes
2. Je mange juste des pommes
Même si les deux phrases sont correctes, la première est meilleure.
Mais ces deux mots ne sont pas toujours synonymes:
1. C’est juste à côté (=c’est tout près).
2. Il vient juste d’arriver (= il est arrivé à l’instant)
C’est un peu compliqué mais j’ai trouvé cette page assez claire: https://fr.sawakinome.com/articles/language/dif...
