Instances are websites. Federation just means they can automatically communicate directly between multiple intakes, and share information without requiring user interaction. (lemmy.world)

Any website that implements ActivityPub APIs properly can federate with other sites as part of the fediverse.

In the light of the above ☝️ statement and in the context of the given lemmy post, l am presenting three websites as an example :

https://zessa.in/

https://urthy.in/

https://1ness.in/

Can such websites be created and made to federate as a part of the fediverse ?

You'll essentially need a blogging functionality, where updates are posted or latest news.

In this regard, if you study the following website, this kind of website can also be constructed in this format and then federated ? You can not only insert images in the blogs but also embed videos. However, the blogging functionality has to be closed for the users.

Events could be federated, so could any blogs. Wordpress creates a community that's viewable from lemmy for the blog, where users cannot post from, but can comment on

The community exists in some lemmy instance ?

It is it's own instance that renders on lemmy as a community

In this regard, l would say that you don't need to haggle to register for a domain name like you have to do for a website having a .com or .org or .net extension.

Is it possible to create email ids for such instances to which mails can be easily sent from gmail or Yahoo mail or any other normal email address ?
