i just don't get how this shit works. last night i clicked on something on hexbear that took me to lemmy.blahaj or something, and one of the first banners i see on a community says "fuck tankies". what is that site, how is it related to this one? then there's lemmygrad. also one i find myself on from this site. but despite looking identical my hexbear account doesn't work on there so it's not part of hexbear?

my ass is stupid and confused.

You have an account on hexbear, so you can log in to hexbear, not other instances.

But you can comment on other federated instances through your Hexbear account. So instead of logging into lemmygrad with your Hexbear account, you interact with lemmygrad content on Hexbear.
