I know there are posts out there explaining this quite well, but I would love an ELI5 version. What is Lemmy and the Fediverse?

So if I have an account on lemmy.world, can I post on lemmy.ml without creating an account there? If not, I don’t understand how all the instances “communicate” if I have to have multiple accounts to interact with each one.
A lemmy.world user can make posts on lemmy.ml and vice versa. You don’t need to be a member of the one you post to, but you need to be a member of any one of the federated instances. You can even start your own instance and be the only member on it if you like.
I’m not understanding this either. Do I see posts made by Lemmy.ml when I’m Lemmy.world? If I subscribe to a group like memes can people with a Lemmy.ml account also join it? Or is their meles group a different one?
