I wonder how many people have accidentally signed up for more lemmy instances before they realized that wasn’t needed.
I did…lol
I’m only on one lemmy but I did sign on both lemmy and kbin before realizing they were connected.
Same here :) I consider it reserving my username for now.
I saw that one of the largest Lemmy’s hadn’t had 3 names taken that are high value (to me at least) so I snatched up the three I use often or really wanted. I’ve always dreamed of being one of the like Phil@gmail.com and now I am!
It could come in handy not only as username reserve, just found out you can follow mastodon users from kbin (you can’t in lemmy), maybe it’s well know already but for me everything is still a discovery :D
I’m still not sure what an instance is but I’ll sign up to some more of them if I can get more content.
nope you wont. If you signed up at an instance that hasnt defederated like beehaw then you will be able to see almost anything.
Yep, users registered @beehaw can’t see everything, but everybody else can see beehaw posts.
I 100% did this in Mastodon when I first signed up.
