(edit) - Answered by @sexy_peach@feddit.de below. Thanks!

I created duplicate accounts (same username as this one), one here on lemmy.ml and another of the same account on midwest.social. This was before I understood how Lemmy works. Now I’ve deleted the account on midwest.social and want to login there with my federated account from lemmy.ml. However when I try to login it just sits and spins.

Will I be able to login to the other Lemmy server with this account? Do I just need to give the other server some time before it wipes out the account completely?

I have verified that the other server is federated with lemmy.ml:

    Can I still post and comment in those communities while logged in through lemmy.ml?

    Yes, exactly! You only need one account on one server and can use that server to follow and post everywhere!
