For anyone that’s using Lemmy.world and wants to lessen their burden on the admins, look for a Lemmy instance closer to you (in the physical world) using this site:
I believe Mastodon is a different software compared to Lemmy. Lemmy is an aggregation software of the entire Fediverse, while Mastodon is more like Twitter. My limited knowledge of Mastodon makes me think that it wouldn’t be possible to see Lemmy instances, but if you sent your comment using Mastodon then their might be a chance. Hopefully someone else in the comments will sound off.

Sign up on that instance, sign in on your Lemmy app, sort based on All, and you should be able to see the same content as if you were on Lemmy.world!
Me just now - Oh that’s a good idea! (Looks up the instances near me and sees the names) Oh, that’s right. I live in conservative hell. :(
I’ll go a little further and find a less crazy instance…

Looks at location-based fediverse list.
Looks outside window.
Yeah, that tracks.
I only have Mastodon instances near me. Can Mastodon instances browse Lemmy instances?

You can see posts and users on Lemmy instances from Mastodon. However there are some limitations.
It would be helpful if they would allow you to filter by which instances allow sign ups. Unless I’m just not seeing it.
There’s a ‘Signups’ column in the list view.
