How do I join (lemmy.world)

How do I join, I am so frustrated now because you are wasting my time. First it says I need a invite, then I think ok maybe if I create an account on lemmy.world. Then I do that and try but am being asked for a instance. All I know is I am trying to join https://lemmy.world/c/autism but now very much suspecting that this community will be unmoderated and hostile as well given how many tricks you have been using. Communities are either unmoderated or moderated but apply unwritten rules.

I have no experience with Element, as far as I can tell it's a client for Matrix, which is not directly connected to Lemmy.

What I found was this post. Apparently lemmy.world has Matrix support in addition to Lemmy itself.

This can be a bit confusing since both apparently use "lemmy.world", but I don't think Lemmy and Matrix are connected directly (as in synced). And that's why you can find lemmy.world with Element, but can't see Lemmy stuff with your Matrix login.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
