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.
One. Signed up on lemmy.ca and don’t see any reason to make another.
Three, browser
You could create a linktree with the list of servers you’re on
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.
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.
Currently three, non used for porn just different instances.
Testing out various apps on iOS.
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
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.
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 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 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 :)
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.
I love Discworld!
By which I mean, what was the phrase?
I thought I smelled something!
