I know this will take some time to get used to, but I am using the Voyager app. I am confused on what local communities in comparison to the federate communities.

I’m also not sure why there are so many different apps for Lemmy because now I feel like I should be checking them all out, but Voyager is very similar to Apollo for Reddit so I feel most comfortable here.

What is an instance?

And how long will I be able to share photos? Since my account is one day old I can’t upload any pictures.

I’ll have more questions, but I can’t think of them right now, thanks in advance!

Yeah it shouldn't make a difference for everyday use, after a while it'll just become intuitive. Like, look at the following communities, they're on many different instances but you should have access to them all:
