With mastodon I just log in with my mastodon account and enter my unique username to follow or comment on something, if it’s on another instance.

But how does it work on Lemmy? If I am on another instance and I try to log in to comment, my account can not be found.

At the post above someone from lemmy.ml commented the post and I am just trying to figure out how this works?

What is the workflow if I find another interesting instance to comment or like, because it looks like leaving lemmy.ml isn’t a good idea.

    (solved)Why cant i comment in other instances?

    I would like to comment this post
    lemmy.eus/post/5671
    but asks me to log in. I am logged in in my instance and although I see people from ‘my’ instance commenting there too, when I try to log it says it does not find my account. Do I have to create an account in this instance first? What am I doing wrong?
