Fedi.tips - A comprehensive guide for Fediverse and Mastodon. Useful for Lemmy aswell.

Brand newb here. Do i have to join all of them with different logins or?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

No, but you can interact with different instances, like how I am commenting from beehaw.org instance.

I definitely need answers for this, too.

You can't reuse the login to difference instances, but you can interact with different instances, like how I am commenting from beehaw.org instance.

How does that work exactly? I am registered here, but want to subscribe to communities over on feddit.de It only gives me an error message on the bottom left that I'm not logged in when hitting "subscribe".

You need to go to Communities tab, and from there subscribe to those communities. When those appear in your feed, you can comment.

You can't directly go to those instance and comment.
