Email requirements for registration are set per-instance. Beyond that, it's my understanding that only a user's existence is shared across instances, in order to attach you to your content. Your registration details stay on the instance you belong to.
Some instances require it and some don't.
It's a setting that the instance admin can enable or disable. Same with allowing downvotes or not for the instance.
