Newbie here - just wondering if there are any advantages to signing up to other instances. We can still see/comment on posts from other instances, right? Or do I have that wrong?

Edit: thanks, everyone who responded! Got it.

    Oh, I didn’t answer your other question. All instances share the same content (the Fediverse), so yes you can view and respond to the same content on lemmy.world as you do on any other instance. There is the issue of federation (linking and blocking of other instances), but I won’t get into that right now for fear of giving you information overload. For now you can assume all content is available on any instance. Once you get comfortable, look into the federation aspect further.
