I’m not sure if I can post here. Lemmy seems kind of complicated. For instance, I tried to post something and it said I can’t because I’m on a local instance. So how do I find out what instance a community is on and how do I make it so I can post?
An example: I went to https://join-lemmy.org/instances and searched for nostupidqestions and nothing was found.
!nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
The instance is after the @. The site you linked is for finding what you already have; a Lemmy site (instance) to make an account on.
You should search for communities on your instance. Or use https://lemmyverse.net/
Then why does it say I can’t post because I’m on a local instance in Lemmy.world? The instructions say it doesn’t matter what server I’m on because they are all linked n
I’m not sure. Can you take a screenshot of the error?
