Can a user who signed up on Aussie.zone create communities on other instances? (aussie.zone)

The limited-scope focus of aussie.zone means it makes a lot of sense for new community-creation to be restricted on this instance. But is it possible for us to create communities on other instances? I’ve got a few interests that I’d love to see represented in the Threadiverse which currently aren’t, so I had thought to create them myself, but I can’t figure out how.

No, but you can (and probably should) have accounts on more than 1 instance

Why?

I'll take a guess.

Defederation issues. Instance failing.

Example: beehaw defederated from the 2 big instances. Lodion, if we use aussie.zone as an example, wasn't 100% sure of aussie.zone's future.

Without account migration available like Mastodon has, having more than one account allows the full experience.

Edit: and the point of this thread, creating communities can be limited.

Exactly.

And Jerboa has multi-account support for other readers.

I also read that you can set up multiple PWA on your phone for each instance if that's required.
