    Am I going to regret signing up to lemmy.ml rather than a more specific instance? Still wrapping my head around all this. Could I sign up on another instance w/ the same username if that instance wasn’t federated?

      I don’t think so, but if you notice a server that has significantly more of what you want and less of what you don’t want you can go and join them later!

      So long as the user isn’t already taken on the other server!

      You can sign up on any and as many instances as you want, and still be able to view any content and community from any other instance. This is the point of federation.
