    I’m pretty new here too, but from what I understand you’d need to create a new account if you want to log in to Lemmy.dbzer0.com - however, you can subscribe to communities on other instances from your Lemmy.ml account. Search for the other community by typing it in the search bar like this; !communityname@lemmy.dbzer0.com and then you can subscribe.

    nope, but you can browse resources of other servers here on lemmy, if they’re federated, list of federated/blocked instances is available under “instances” link at the bottom of each page, some instances defederate each other for some reasons, shit just happens

      Exactly, my home instance is mander.xyz but I’m subscribed to this community and saw this post in my feed.

    I just search for them on my home instance, subscribe, and then comment/vote from my home instance. No reason to sign up everywhere.

    Sort off. No need to create an account on every site as you can subscribe to and contribute to communities on other servers though lemmy.ml

    You can subscribe to other federated communities and post there with one account created in a different instance. So you only need one account.

    No, but normally you shouldn’t have to. You can still see and interact with all communities on the instances your instance is federated with. You’d only need to create a new account on an instance that has been defederated from your “home” instance (for example you account is on lemmy.ml but you want to interact with beehaw.org)

    No, that is not possible, each server (instance, like Lemmy.ml, lemme.ee, Lemmy.world) is completely on its own. The reason you can see posts from instance x on instance y is because they sync posts and comments with eachother. The are what is called “federated”. Some instances unfederate other instances. Then the sync is only one way. Basically saying “I don’t want to see your posts and comments anymore instances x, I will no longer sync your stuff to my instance”. Note that other instances can still sync posts and comments from the one that unfederates. Take for example that beehaw.org unfederated lemmy.world. Users from Lemmy.world can still post on beehaw.org communities but beehaw will not see those posts anymore.
