Im very new to lemmy.ca and to the fediverse. Im trying to figure out how to best navigate between things like lemmy.ca and lemmy.world I was under the impression you only needed one acct to go between them, but when I try my credentials at lemmy.world it says they are invalid.

Can someone maybe break this down like im 5?

Thanks in advance!

Think of it like email. You can't log in with your gmail account on hotmail and vice versa, but you CAN send email back and forth. Ditto Lemmy. You can subscribe to communities on other servers, upvote, etc.
