And how many of those accounts are for NSFW content?
For the sake of anonymity, people without separate accounts can pretend to be sock-puppets of those answering.
Just the one. I’d just constantly forget to switch if I had more than one, not worth the hassle.
3 but one is abandoned.
I got a Kbin account but there were a few too many bugs. So I found a Lemmy instance I quite liked and and left the Kbin account to rot. I also have a mastodon account because sometimes I like to have the scroll.
One. Signed up on lemmy.ca and don’t see any reason to make another.
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.
Three, browser
I have 4, one in kbin, one in world, one in shit, and this one… :D
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 one Lemmy and one kbin as well. Seeing what develops.
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.
I have kbin too, since I found sync issues with kbin where posts wouldn’t show up even days later.
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.
I see no need for extra accounts :)
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.
