Or is it only the 3 that you can pick from where you can create an account in settings?

Still new so trying to work this out.

Is Connect for Lemmy only federated with a few instances?

For example I wanted to join lemdro.id As it's the replacement for /r/Android But when I search it's seemingly not there.

From what I can tell that is the Instance, and within it are communities. Are we able to add additional instances? Or even post across them? (I think I'm on lemmy.world?)

As tofr said, you can access almost every instance (and thus any community) from any instance.

But, if you're wanting to sign up for the android instance, and access it through the app Connect, you would do so by opening the left hand side menu, then the three dot at the top of the side screen. Select "add account", then type in the instance name and the rest of your login info.

But. Afaik, you can't sign up via any of the apps currently. You would have to visit the website of the instance and sign up there.
