I’ve just created an account on Lemmy.world and am able to subscribe for communities in lemmy.ml. Can I use it there? Can I use same credentials for all lemmy instances? Does it make a difference where I create one?

    You only use one account. The one you created on Lemmy.world.

    You can use the search function to find communities in other instances, you can upvote and comment on them too! No need for more than one account!

    Think of it like email. If you have an email account at gmail.com you can still send and receive mail from people at mit.edu or wherever.

    Here, the instance your account is on will fetch posts and comments from other instances on behalf of you and other subscribers.
