That's right. The instance you signed up to is basically your home base but you can still interact with communities on other instances and add them to your subscription list.
Ah thanks. So does the home instance matter at all? Seems like not really as long as you can subscribe other instances?
Each instance will have it's own set of rules and moderation process (Beehaw is moderated and limits new users, lemmy.ml has a political angle etc) so it can make a difference. I signed up to lemmy.nz because I was already on mastodon.nz and am chipping in for server costs, and because I wanted a properly 'local' local feed. Plus the community here is pretty awesome.
Ah interesting. I'm wondering if I should sign up on the lemmy nz one then
Honesty it is unlikely to be an issue, you could just sign up on a different instance at the time it becomes an issue (if ever).
Good point. I realise now I can view this one from kbin as well
