Cannot join lemmy.world. Am I doing something wrong? (linux.community)

I thought if I create an account everywhere in the lemmy universe, it's valid for every lemmy page (like lemmy.world or lemmy.ml).

Apparently this is wrong. Do I have to create an account there again if I want to post there?

Yeah, this is a downside of federation right now. Too many linking still goes to the target instance instead of loading it in your home instance. I hear Mastodon is fixing this behavior, Lemmy should definitely follow this, imho. (Making hxxps://instance.tld/@\user equal to @user@\instance.tld)

Be sure I have on many mobile apps right now is that clicking links open to the web browser instead of in app.
