On Lemmy.world? Or Lemmy.ml?
... I'm really confused about these different sites/instances/defederation.
So it's helpful to think of each lemmy server as its own "mini reddit". It has its own collection of users and communities ( similar to subreddits). The cool thing is you can sign up from any of the lemmy servers and then subscribe to communities and interact with users from any other server. This is because all servers "talk" to all other servers, as long as they're not defederated ( See beehaw).
I think what the user above you was saying is to do the sign up on your desktop, with the server of your choice (lemmy.world is a decent choice). And then try logging into Jerboa using your credentials( and remembering which server you used to sign up-you can't sign into a different server from the one you created your account on)
I am also confused about what @Colt420 is suggesting here. It is clear that you already have a sign up for lemmy.world. This should be enough to log into Jeroba so what you're seeing is likely just a bug.
It's all a bit confusing, and ironically I wish there was a sub like r/NoStupidQuestions where I could ask for help. A few people have replied to me to tell me how the instances work, but I need an ELI3 or something, haha! Thank you for letting me know that it's likely just a bug. Will see how this smooths over in the months ahead. :)
I see questions like this pop up on the NoStupidQuestions community on lemmy.world so it seems like a reasonable ask.
But tl;dr: If you are reading and posting on lemmy.world you are seeing and being seen by most people on lemmy in general. Any weird behavior is likely just normal open source growing pains.
I'm still sort of confused myself, but I think (someone please confirm or deny) a good non internet metaphor would be like a neighborhood or a small town. You move into Smallville, and you live, work, and shop there and become friends with a lot of the people there. That's lemmy.world. It's where you live. But there's nothing stopping you from getting on a bus or in your car and going and visiting TinyTown and shopping or visiting the residents there (ie, interacting with other instances), and they can come to Smallville and interact with you. Beehaw is like Grumpytown, they decided they didn't want to deal with certain people, so they built a wall around their town and blew up the bridges so no one can come visit and also their residents can't get out.
