I'm not sure if I can post here. Lemmy seems kind of complicated. For instance, I tried to post something and it said I can't because I'm on a local instance. So how do I find out what instance a community is on and how do I make it so I can post?

An example: I went to https://join-lemmy.org/instances and searched for nostupidqestions and nothing was found.

You post was removed by a moderator. There was no error, everything worked the way it's supposed to.

"Rule 1" is in reference to the rules of the community you posted in, and the rest is just telling you why you got notified of the post being removed.

The "local" is referring to the fact that your user exists on lemmy.world, and is hence local to that server.
