Should I Make Multiple Server Logins? (lemmy.ca)

I know you can use a single login to subscribe to communities from other servers, but are there any advantages to having an account on each server compared to having a single account connected to communities on other servers?

If you do make multiple accounts, note that you can also copy settings between them such as the subscribed and blocked lists

Go to your user settings
Export the data
Import it into the new account

Note that it will also copy over other settings unless you manually modify the file, so keep that in mind when importing
