I joint today because Kbin is very slow to browse, so I figured I create an account here, but I don't get why there is a lemm.me and lemmy.world which both look identical but it seems I can't log in there using my username here?
They are different instances. That's how the fediverse works.
You need to create an account on each instance you want to access the federation from.
is Lemmy the federation?
