Is there an article someone could point to that explains how kbin, lemmy.ml, lemmy.world etc. all relate to one another?

For example do I need an account with both kbin and lemmy, or are they just different names for the same thing?

Can I subscribe to a lemmy.world ‘channel’ with my kbin account?

Still trying to work things out.

    As a user, you only need to care about which one you sign up with. All the mentioned ones are interoperable, I think, but lemmy.world is blocked from beehaw right now. Basically, pick one that doesn’t have a lot of shithead users that will drag you down with them, so more involved signups are a good thing.

        Ah yes, the “don’t federate” option. In that general direction there’s also “unplug”, which are both good to mention for completeness, thanks.

        I was assuming this person wants to be in the big discussion whenever possible, though.
