I would like to create a user on Lemmy.ml, but it says that registration is closed. Is that a permanent situation or will it reopen eventually?

Also you should be viewing content via lemmy.world not directly on Lemmy.ml. that’s how federation works.
As you can see here this is what you see if you are just on lemmy.ml
If you are on lemmy.world and viewing content you see:
I thought you could exist as a user on any instance and they are all interconnected? Unless they defederate for some reason.
Your user login only works on your instance. Any instance that is federated with your instance you can interact with through your instance. You cant interact with a different instance directly.
Which is why in the screenshots above You cant vote on the first one since that is interacting directly with lemmy.ml. However you can interact with the second because you are interacting with lemmy.ml through lemmy.world
