How to make an Art Instance for Lemmy?
I tried finding Art instances to subscribe to after leaving Reddit and only found too which were for psychedelic art and erotic art. How do I make an instance for just Art and other instances for other genres? Unless does one exist?

What's the point of signing up on instances?

Is there a point in having multiple lemmy accounts?
I had made one for lemmy.world and lemmy.ml, not really knowing what I was doing just checking out the different sites. Is there a point in having multiple accounts or can I just access everything with one account?

“Fedier” is easy to say. It also applies not only to lemmy but also to Kbin.
How do we talk about the Lemmy Doodle? Is it a mascot? Is it a lemming or a rat or a lemur? Does it have a name?
Lemmy's search widget isn't working for me. Google produced these questions, but asked a year ago. No consensus was reached then.

I just checked the modlog, and they keep featuring posts from the instance fanaticus.social. From time to time, a post from that instance appears instead of the post I'm looking for. Already blocked all the /c.
What's with all the NordVPN hate?
I see people say that NordVPN is a bad choice all the time, but I've never seen any credible evidence that they're not trustworthy. Can anyone provide any sources with valid reasons to avoid their service? I only know that they had some servers hacked in 2018, but it seems as though they took that very seriously and upgraded...
Anyone else notice that short videos are making their attention span worse? (kbin.social)
I don't actually use TikTok or even the "sliding" function on youtube shorts, but I feel like my attention span has gotten much worse after they started getting popular. Even watching a 2 minute video feels dreadfully long, let alone a 10 or 20 minute video, so I end up watching a mostly short animation memes instead.

Was wondering if sub-lemmys were a thing. In other words: are there ways to make a community where you can draw direct, meaningful relations between existing communities?
How can I block instance or find instance that has an instance blocked?
Hey folks. I’m relatively new to lemmy and the fediverse. After spending some time here I really like the idea and most of the implementation but there is one major flaw. As a user I cannot seem to ban a whole instance and that really sucks. I do not want to get bombarded by porn all the time but there are more porn...

Can I perform user authentication for users of federated instances, “registering” them as users in my instance’s database?
For example: for a particular use case , I want to go a step beyond ActivityPub, and allow a user who created an account on another server to perform full authentication on my server, effectively become a proxied registered account, granting privileges of a natively registered account....
