Still getting into lemmy and understanding federation, but as in the title, should I make multiple accounts on different instances? I created this account on lemmy.ca, but let's say I want to be a mod for a community on another instance or I want to start a community on another instance. I need an account on that instance right?

Also, is there any way to keep all these accounts linked to one another?

you need an account on the instance to create a community there. but you wouldnt need multiple accounts to browse other instances, youd be able to find them though your account on the instance youd mod on :)
