Looks like you have the basics figured out.

For those who are new to federation and want to see what it looks like, note that friftar's account is from feddit.de while this community is from lemmy.world.

I dont quite understand how this works. I am now logged in to lemmy and can post, but I cannot post on feddit.de?

[-] Zak@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I suspect you're visiting feddit.de directly and then you can't post because you don't have an account there. If instead you visit this link to a community hosted there from the server you're logged in to, you can post.

There's definitely some room for the software to improve its user experience surrounding that.

ok, on https://lemmy.world/c/main@feddit.de (the equivalent to r/de I guess) the sidebar says I should just search for !main@feddit.de in the lemmy searchbar, but nothing shows up. I did a workaround by putting it in the URL.

Use the communities tab instead of the main search.
