I would like to see photo downloading implemented into the android client (the button is there as of now but it won't let me download)

How do I subscribe/view/post to other instances (lemmy.ml)
 

I know I've been asking a lot of questions recently, I'm just trying to learn and gather info about this new place

I understand that the instances are like email. I have an "Gmail" account that can see and send messages to an outlook account, but I can't use the Gmail to sign in to the outlook website. My problem is that I cannot figure out how to view, subscribe, and post to other instances from mine. I have tried searching for them using the !(communityname)@(whateverinstance).(something) format but nothing seems to come up, and the only time it has it just brings me to that instance and I couldn't do anything since I didn't have an account on that instance. am I missing something?

For extra info I am mainly using the android app (from GitHub not the Play store), and my main account is on lemmy.ml

Thanks for any help, hopefully I can stop inandating you with questions soon enough and start to fully contribute to the fediverse!

Do I need to make a new account for every Lemmy instance? (lemmy.ml)
 

I tried to sign in to Lemmy.ca with the account I created on the Lemmy.ml and it didn't work. Any reason for this? (I am very new to Lemmy and am still learning how to use/understand how all the instances work)

New to Lemmy, What are instances and how do they work? in c/[email protected]

Update: Thanks for all the info, it makes a bit more sense now, and I've logged in after installing the Lemmur app

New to Lemmy, What are instances and how do they work? (lemmy.ml)
 

I am a little confused on how the whole system works. I am also trying to log in to the android Lemmy client however nothing I put in the instances field seems to work
