When I go to the instance startrek.website, I get told that I'm not logged in anymore and that I need to make a new account. I did that, and then I couldn't see this instance anymore. Does this mean that startrek.website is not "federated"? Having trouble understanding all of this. Everyone keeps saying that it doesn't matter what instance you make your account on, but my first attempt at specifically going to a new instance is showing me otherwise?

To add to the reply that was already given to you, I just want to let you know:

Someone is working on a browser extension so this can get fixed, even if it's just a temporary fix. So when this is created there will be no need for you to paste the link manually.

Since this is basically the inception of Lemmy we just have to be a little patient so Lemmy gets its right footing and they implement all the necessary features.
