I have accounts on 3 different instances.

Two, and a Kbin. The first instance was just for bots (friendly ones I made), then I signed up for this account to use as an alt as Kbin is a bit flaky. Kbin is my main account but I'm using this one quite a bit due to frequent 500 errors over there.

2 as of today. My main is on BeeHaw, but I realized that some of the communities I wanted to follow were on defederated instances, so I signed up for programming.dev. I think I'm going to use it for the tech-related communities (plus anything defederated) and BeeHaw for the rest

I'm on two right now. It seems like there are issues with comments loading from other instances. For example I commented on a post hosted on instance A from my instance B, but I couldn't see the replies to my comment without going to instance A directly. This left me unable to respond directly to their reply without making an account on instance A

1. I started out with the og Lemmy.ml.
2. Then created my own instance/bot Lemmit.
3. Thought Lemmy.ml was to slow/unstable, so created an account on Lemmy.world
4. Gotta have a separate account for grown up stuff, so signed up on LemmyNSFW.com
5. Gee... Lemmy.world is kinda slow/unstable... Better sign up on lemm.ee...

I'll probably retire the lemmy.ml and world accounts though.

Two so far. Started on slrpnk.net because I liked their community list and general theme and focus. Added midwest.social because I was thinking of hosting a community and I didn't feel like it fit Solarpunk's tight focus, and I didn't want to detract from that. Midwest is now my main, but I actively use both.

All of them

One, lemmy.ml but want to change to a smaller one, any recommendation?

Two. One on lemmy.ml originally, and then I made a second on feddit.de because I live in Germany so I thought a German instance would be nice, and they don't show NSFW posts which makes browsing in the office a little less awkward.

One, since three years ago. Lemmy.ml , but due the massive exodus from reddit I'm looking for an alternative. Looking for smaller instances. Any recommendation? Any instance that speaks Spanish or mix English and Spanish?

Two, first on lemmy.world, wasn't happy, created my own, hoping to attract more users to it. Edit: Forgot about the porn account, so 3.

Only 1, haven't needed to have more accounts and there isn't an instantance I have wanted to visit but that has blocked mine yet, so no need to have another one right now

2 Lemmy instances and also kbin. Wasn't planned, but my first instance was so overrun that there were frequent server problems.

1

Two! One on Lemmy.world a day or two after it was started ... that one is now painfully too slow, and a second that was originally going to be just for porn but now is my main, at least till world is sorted out

4, Lemmy.world beehaw.org sh.itjust.works and my own selfhosted 😄

I have one in kbin, lemmy.world, lemmy.one, and this one that I'm using right now in my own instance. So 4 total.

I don't use the first three much anymore now that I have this one but prior to this, I was mostly active in lemmy.one

I have one on lemmy.ca and one on kbin.social. The latter was mostly because federation was broken at the time I signed on with the reddit migration.

I'd say I spend more time on lemmy now? Yes, kbin's interface looks more modern and slick but seems less functional? I particularly like that you can collapse threads on lemmy. And I guess a bunch of apps are headed to lemmy first so there's that.

Usually, I like to post/reply using the kbin account if it's to a kbin magazine, but something weird happened the other day. I actually saw a new post on kbin.social from my lemmy account before it showed up on kbin. I'm not sure how that's even possible?

Looks like...[checks sidebar] three: .world, .ee, .film. Oh, and kbin. So far .ee seems the peppiest. Wish I didn't have to recreate my subscriptions each time! 😏

6 or 7..I kinda lost track.

Most were to evaluate the best instance.

One or two were just to force manual federation sync of a community I moderate.

Two, I'm liking this instance more than lemmy.world

2 but the first was a quick anonymous test that i deleted after quickly getting used to lemmy and this one.

Two as of the moment, and I hope I don't need to add more.

3, though I’m including kbin.social too. I’m settling on Lemmy.world for mobile use, and kbin.social for PC use. I made a Lemmy.ml account at the start of the blackout and just never used it.

Two: my main on Lemmy.one and another on Reddthat.com which was the first account I created. I also have a kbin.social account. Really hedging my bets.

Haha I cannot say for sure. I certainly started to duplicate my credentials... so now I'm more likely to be logged in as BendyLemmy.

So initially it was Lemmy.ml (which wasn't working too well) and it got annoying that I wasn't logged in when opening links - so BeeHaw, Lemmy.world, https://fosstodon.org/ is BendyToy,...

One thing I'm finding useful now in Bitwarden is that I can autofill and copy (so just refresh for a new password) to get the same username for each one... but it's kind of getting out of hand.

It's a little frustrated that we can't use a kind of centralised profile - like the way an 'opendesktop' account can be used to log in to various instances of websites. If I log in the Opendesktop website, and then go to Mastodon, I find my Opendesktop account gets logged in there - so there's more fragmentation.

Overal it is just very confusing.

Sadly, I had to make an account in two instances.

Two, my main is beehaw but I use this account when they're down.

Only one so far but I might switch for another less laggy one.

One, since I didn't know how to pick. But it seems great so far.

2 for kbin, because I had no clue, but Lemmy is much snappier. Most likely will be deleting those.

Four.

• Lemmy.ml, but not sure if they were accepting sign ups and wasn’t accepted.
• Beehaw, but found communities on Lemmy.world I couldn’t see.
• Lemmy.world, but had performance issues and realised I couldn’t see Beehaw 🤦‍♂️.
• Finally landed on Lemm.ee and I’m happy here.

I'm on lemmy.world (which is being crushed by new users) and infosec.pub. Considering just spinning up my own server.
