I like that Lemmo is just as long as Lemmy, and needlessly confusing, as when shouted, people might think you're saying Limo, unless you're a kiwi.

I think you mean Lemmo!

So I can see that a member has posted something to my new community on another server yesterday, but it still hasn't filtered back to here specifically from beehaw

The only reason I can think of to maybe do this is to have an SFW identity and an NSFW identity, and then you would just have your SFW on an instance that blocks NSFW, and your NSFW on an instance that does not.

Your identity is tied to your instance for example I am @bwok_bwok@lemmy.world and anyone who interacts with me from another instance can see that. And if someone chooses the same name at another instance they are a different identity, and the two don't really cross-pollinate, just make sure to include your instance with your username whenever you share it.

You really don't need an account on every Lemmy server. If you just pick one that meets your needed values, you can access all the other federated Lemmy content on other instances.

Is there an easy way to create ready-made instances yet? Like on linode or something similar?

So as I understand it, communities are the equivalent of subreddits, is it possible to create a private community? One accessible only by members? Most of the people I interact with on a daily basis are part of a private sub.

So far, so confused 😕
