I don't fully understand the whole instances thing, but I know if I make an account on startrek.website's instance, I can't see a lot of other instances that I can see when I log into an account I made on, say, lemmy.world or lemmy.ml. Is there something that mods need to do to enable this, or is this a purposeful decision to stay unconnected to non-Star Trek related instances? If that's the case then everyone will need to make another account to view this content, which creates a lot more friction and would limit the odds of achieving critical mass.
