Can you create communities in other instances, or do you need an account on the instance that it's created/hosted on?

Like my home instance is lemmy.one, but if I wanted to create a community on some other instance would I be able to do that? I assume not, and that I'd need to create another account on the instance the community is local to. Is that correct?

Still learning this whole fediverse thing.

    You are right. If you find someone trustworthy on the according instance, you could also ask them to create the community for you and then transfer ownership.
