I like the app but everytime I wanna upvote or comment a post made through another instance the app won't let me unless I make an account for every instance. How do I get around this?

Interact with communities via your instances only. If other instances are accessed directly, you are treated as anonymous.

For example I scroll my feed which is set to All. I then open a post for example on lemmy.ml and when I try to upvote it or comment it says I have to log in using lemmy.ml (or whatever instance it requires). This doesn't happen when I'm using Thunder or Jerboa

The only instances you can't interact with when the show everything setting is on are instances that have defederated from lemmy.world
