I’m not sure if I can post here. Lemmy seems kind of complicated. For instance, I tried to post something and it said I can’t because I’m on a local instance. So how do I find out what instance a community is on and how do I make it so I can post?

An example: I went to https://join-lemmy.org/instances and searched for nostupidqestions and nothing was found.

    It’s not that you can’t post because you’re a local user.
    You did post there, it’s just that the community mod removed it because it didn’t belong in that community (their call not mine). This has nothing to do with being a local user.

    It’s just that lemmy.world notifies their users about removals and bans. Whereas in general, you’d need to consult the modlog to know about it.
