You just make an account on a smaller instance (easiest way to find them is at the bottom of the page here), and subscribe to all the communities you want from lemmy.world and others to start pulling them in.
Then proceed to shitpost as normal.
EDIT: Alternatively, go here, switch the “Software” option to Lemmy at the top, and look for a server geographically close to you.
I’m still catching up with the fediverse stuff… if I delete the account on lemmy.world, can I use the same name on another (smaller) instance? are the unique account names being checked locally or globally?

Oh, great tip! Thanks! It’s interesting to see which servers are hosted in my state.
