And how many of those accounts are for NSFW content?

For the sake of anonymity, people without separate accounts can pretend to be sock-puppets of those answering.

Yes. You can use the search function for that, just search for "community@instance", so for example "worldnews@lemmy.world".

Linking to communities from other instances works similarly, using a "!": !worldnews@lemmy.world

You can also append this type of address to your instance url like so:

https://lemmy.ml/c/worldnews@lemmy.world

As long as another instance is not explicitly defederated (blocked) from yours, you can visit any community from any instance this way.
