How should we deal with similarly named communities? (kbin.social)

Right now there are similarely named communities across the fediverse.

"fediverse@xxx", "Linux@xxx", "asklemmy", "askkbin"..etc...

I'm on kbin and I'm having a hard time figuring out how to use the fediverse more productively, by reaching the largest amount of people for asking questions, solving problems, simply put: to engage... like I used to do on Reddit?

And I would like to add to all the answers. Instances are like countries that have their own values and rules. For example, [email protected] will not be the same as [email protected]. Beehaw is a heavily moderated instance, while Lemmy.world is more "free". What can be posted on [email protected] will not necessarily be the case on [email protected].
