This is very helpful and some great info for someone new to lemmy!
I'll raise a bug report for lemmynsfw to Boost and get to creating a new account. It can be a bit confusing so I appreciate the breakdown, thank you!
i'm glad i could be helpful - i realise federated social networks are a bit of a paradigm shift, so feel free to ask me if you have any other questions (although i probably won't have any answers)
