How is the federation supposed to work regarding logins? I made my initial account on lemmy.world but I'm unable to login and subscribe to communities on other federated servers. I presumed the primary server I setup on would allow me to subscribe and comment on communities on other servers?
Now, I'm very new here too but maybe I can provide a little insight.
I tried to login on multiple instances before I realized I can only login on the one I signed up for. But if you got to the main page on where you signed up, you should see a toggle, subscribed/local/all. Select all and it's the equivalent to r/all I think. You can also search communities (subreddits) both locally and under all (which is federated) here a link make sure it says all on top if you want to search all instances.
