Title.
Newbie, recently joined, 7/1/23.
Right now, I’m on three: Lemmy.world (my ‘main’ or ‘home’), kbin, and Blahaj Lemmy. I’m looking at Reddthat and sh.itjust.works as well.
Just curious. I know most of the content will overlap, but there are differences in philosophy/moderator style, etc.
Do you like having ONE instance?
I’m loving Alexandrite as the Dove dark chocolate enrobing my lemmy.world ice cream bar!
One. Isn’t that kind of the point?
I think having Lenny and a kbin account is reasonable. If one goes down you can use the other.
Fair enough. Personally I’d probably just lurk until my instance was back up, but I could see it being worth having a backup.
i have a couple of accounts that i keep synced in case one of my instances disappears.
What are you syncing across accounts?

Yes. Also you’ll likely have less lag.
I’m happy with the one instance I’m on. The admin’s a nice guy and we agree well on policies.
I dunno, Max P. You may have a falling out with the admin at max-p.me. Better be careful.
Remember to get your admin a little treat every now and then to keep them happy.
Three but the other two are for porn
Same.
I thought there was only one porn instance, what is there apart from lemmynsfw?
Pornlemmy and yiffit
I currently use lemmy.world and i also have a mastodon account from 2 years ago i never use
Lemmy.ml, but wondering about migrating to some other instance because I can’t log in here, have just this Jerboa session, besides lemmy I use mastodon.cloud
I can’t know what will happen in the future so I signed up to a bunch.
Feddit.uk as my main and one on lemmy.world to start any general communities on here and act as a back-up in case of disasters.
I signed up on Sopuli.xyz and that’s it. I haven’t really had a need to sign up on another instance.
I have Lemmy.film as a backup with mirrored subs cause Im a little worried after my og instance Vlemmy just vanished
Three. I originally signed up on lemmy.world because it was the big one, made an account on lemmynsfw.com for… reasons, then learned that clustering on one instance is a bad idea and made an account, which is now my main, on Midwest.social
I refuse to even try to join midwest.social out of a very petty protest. Fuckers are pretending Missouri ain’t the midwest! You’re stuck with us, whether you like it or not!
~~get me out ~~
The midwest is named after the Midwest Territory. Missouri was never part of the Midwest Territory
Tell that to the census bureau

2 right now, one on Lemmy.ml and one on my own instance. 3 if you want to count the server admin account. I’ve been thinking about adding more accounts on my server to segregate content so frontpage for each account could be somewhat focused while all would be a mess of everything.
Tbh I don’t really see much point to accounts on different instances. I might be missing something, but the only difference that I can see from a user’s perspective is what instances get federated/federated. You certainly don’t need an account to just browse instances for new communities to subscribe to on your instance.
Kbin.social and mastodon.social
Spend most of my time on Mastodon.
