Asklemmy

1 main and 1 nsfw just like I did on reddit

I have 3 on different instances with all the same subscriptions in case one goes down.

One on lemmy.world (June 15th), this account I've made on lemmy.fmhy.ml (July 3rd), and one on lemmynsfw (also July 3rd). My lemmy.fmhy.ml account is my main now, I only login on lemmy.world if I want a more up-to-date feed and content, though the lemmyverse has already gotten bigger and has more content nowadays so that's no longer necessary.

You mean Fediverse accounts? I have one for Lemmy and one for Mastodon. Boring? Yeah, I know.

One on lemmy.world and one on kbin.social, because I wanted to try out both. I only use Lemmy, but I'll keep kbin as a backup in case there's any shenanigans with Lemmy in the future. And I still have my old Reddit account cause I can't bring myself to delete it, but that profile just points people to my Lemmy account.

I have four due to instance shopping, but there's only one I use all the time and one I use as an alternate. Would be nice to be able to synchronize them.

NSFW I don't care about, it's enabled. I only browse stuff by subscription where that stuff rarely comes up. Can't imagine the garbage I'd have to sift through setting my front page to "All".

Just this one, I don't see a need to have any alts right now. I might later on for NSFW if I want to subscribe and vote, but there's basically no NSFW lemmys worth using yet so...

1 main account, 1 alt account. This is a use case where I fully appreciate the separation caused by federation; my alt account is on a separate instance and therefore is completely, wholly separate from my main.

I have a handful of redundant accounts because instances keep fucking up or disappearing completely.

You could create a linktree with the list of servers you're on

Ummm, I'm not sure?

Back on reddit, I had two main, my author account, and a novelty account. Wanted to keep things simple. One main for browsing, another for moderation. The author account for self promotion and such. The novelty account was for the joy of entering a simple little phrase whenever discworld would come up.

Sadly, for some reason, my textpand doesn't work in lemmy apps, and I haven't typed out the formatting for it in ages. But it was a version of foul old ron and used one of his gibberish phrases along with the clacks overhead the sir Pterry

But, I had tried lemmy out a bit last year or the year before, and had deleted those accounts. I have the two user names I used most on reddit registered at a couple pf instances, plus a handful of others for redundancy, my author account, and three accounts that are actually my cousin's, but he isn't using regularly that I'm subscribing to things I know he likes.

I've kinda lost track tbh. I have them all in my bitwarden though, but I only keep one or two logged into any given app, so I don't have them all in one place without messing with BW

But at least a dozen.

Just two, one I first signed up with and decided was a mistake, and then the one I currently use. I'll probably make a third for nsfw eventually but that's low on the list while I'm still settling in

Three, browser

Currently three, non used for porn just different instances.

Testing out various apps on iOS.

Just the one. I'd just constantly forget to switch if I had more than one, not worth the hassle.

Coincidentally, I just now opened a second account after opening the first a week ago. I decided I wanted a different @username. I don’t know why I used my Reddit username the first time. I’ll delete that one soon — I only made two post comments with it.

I do have a Mastodon, too.

I've got 2, largely out of curiosity for what defederation meant as far as user perspective.

When exporting comes online I'll likely make an effort to spin up an instance if it's still feasible... So there will be a 3rd cake?On the positive side I don't think you're going to find many people wanting to sock puppet mild takes and noise rock.

I have 4, one in kbin, one in world, one in shit, and this one... :D

On Reddit I had my regular one and an alt for commenting things that I wouldn't want tied back to me IRL. So far here is just this one. If I ever post much more identifying info on this one, I might make an alt.

At the moment, I have... seven, I think. I mostly use two - one at kbin and one at lemmy.ninja. I have one at lemmy.world that I check in on occasionally, but there's generally too much junk to wade through there. And I have one at lemmy.nsfw for... you know... stuff. The rest are languishing.

I just open them through my browser. I have a tentative plan to switch to an app, but I'm waiting for them to get a bit more settled first, and really the browser works fine.

I find each instance to be a different experience, so I just switch between them as I see fit. And I'm still looking for at least one more - something deliberately scholarly and sedate.

I have 3.

First was Lemmy.World, because RIF suggested it with its final update message.

Second was Yiffit because I need my furry femboy stuff and didn't find it on Lemmy.World and didn't know I could use the same account for it yet.

3rd was sh.itjust.works as a backup for when the other 2 are down/slow.

On Reddit I just had 2. My main one, and the one I used to get around a really stupid and hypocritical ban on /r/gaming. Perma banned for mentioning what PS .bin file version was needed for NA games on an emulator; not linked, didn't even tell them where to get it, just gave them a version number. In a thread about how to get PCSX to work. 🤦‍♂️

3 - this one is my main one, then one on kbin.social and one on lemmy.world. When I created the other 2 I basically couldn't log in to them because the servers were too overloaded, but this one let me straight in so this is my main one now.

Just 2 here but thinking of spinning up a personal instance shortly

2. 1 for normal stuff, and 1 for NSFW.

Two. I'm on the second right now because my main instance is timing out ATM.

I made 4 or 5 accounts on different instances. I settled on programming.dev, and only use this account.

Might be interesting to create an NSFW account too.

Just this one for posting. I was messing around with the API and couldn't figure out how to log in, so I created another account at an instance populated by weirdos, and spammed that instead with my many wrong and malformed attempts.

3 technically, 2 in use, and just because I didn’t really understand federation at sign up. Now I mainly use my beehaw and my shitjustworks account.

Two Lemmy accounts for my two main groups of interests. Neither NSFW, just different interests. Same two usernames on Mastodon too. Different instances so hopefully if one goes down the other is still ok, but also just because it's handy being on different instances when there are federation issues.

As far as managing them, I'm mostly on my laptop and always have two users running in my browser so they've both just got a pinned Lemmy tab and a pinned Mastodon tab now. On mobile, Liftoff (for Lemmy) and Tusky (for Mastodon) handle multiple accounts fine albeit with a few improvements needed here and there.

I copy paste my Lemmy sub list into a spreadsheet once a week as part of my general life end-of-week tidy up. Export Mastodon stuff every now and then too. Just in case!

Three. This one, one as admin of my instance (so I don't have to log in as admin all the time), and a bot account.

The bot only responds to DMs to add some fun new features. It's not online yet.

I have zero accounts for NSFW, because I am always at work.

I have 2 of the same account on a couple different instances in case one crashes. I pretty much just use this one though, lemmy.world seems relatively stable.

Signed into jerboa with lemmy.ml and liftoff with lemmy.ca for when lemmy.ml suddenly stops loading (hopefully less of an issue as time goes on)
