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; [email protected] and then you can subscribe.

This is correct. You don’t need a user on each instance. You just subscribe to remote instances’ communities from your home instance, and interact with posts as usual.

I think it should be ! [email protected]. With the ! In the start or else it will not show up in the search

Or in the address bar, like this: https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]

You can also go to https://lemmyverse.net/communities, set your home instance to lemmy.ml (or whichever you want), and it'll automatically link you to the correct place to see it on your home instance.

There's also https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lemmy-instance-assistant/

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

Feature request: per-user opt-out. I know how to link properly and when I don't it's intentional.

Sorry for the late reply, I don't read answers to the bot very often. You can block the bot and it won't see your comments/posts anymore and thus it can't respond.
