I’ve just created an account on Lemmy.world and am able to subscribe for communities in lemmy.ml. Can I use it there? Can I use same credentials for all lemmy instances? Does it make a difference where I create one?

    Instances take snapshots of text and comments from federated posts, but not media links and embeds so that federation won’t take up too much storage. The posts from an instance that shut down will still be there but the post becomes “archived” as any new comments or edits cannot be federated.
