I tried to sign in to Lemmy.ca with the account I created on the Lemmy.ml and it didn’t work. Any reason for this? (I am very new to Lemmy and am still learning how to use/understand how all the instances work)

    Decentralisation level 1 (email-like): you have an account on a server, you’re able to browse the content of other servers from your server.

    Decentralisation level 2 (Internet Service Provider-like): you use your server or servers for access to any other servers, you can switch servers pretty much like when you go outside your phone switches from your home Wi-Fi to a mobile 3G/4G/5G network (and you don’t notice such a switch).

    Decentralisation level X: no difference between clients and servers.

    I think was meant in the post is maybe Decentralisation level 2 from the above.
