i have a question: i've made accounts on multiple instances thinking i won't be able to post on them otherwise, is that okay?
You can make an account on each instance. That's OK, too!
but then i am a bit confused, if i can use an account on every instance, why is there an option to make accounts per instance in the first place?
Why isn't there a centralised account log in, and then you select what instances you want to browse?
Also what happens if say, two people have the same username, but are on different instances?
sorry for the myriad of questions i am still new to this whole thing
The username thing is the one lingering question I have not seen answered as well. I suspect there's just going to be duplicate people.
