I found the lemmyverse super confusing for the longest time, especially how so wildly different looking sites would interact.

I see every so often people talking about more than one account on different instances.

Why should i, or why shouldnt use more than one?

What benefits would I, a very average user gain from it?

    I got an error log: Unexpected Error Occurred: “called Option::unwrap() on a None value”

      Could be some kind of new bug, but I’ve also seen this happen when an instance is under heavy load or otherwise glitching out - it’s starts sending back invalid items on the API and LASIM chokes on them.

      For what it’s worth I made an account on reddthat.com and was able to download and upload to it fine.

      Maybe try again? Or is this some other instance? (I’m making assumptions based on your account)

        I will try this again tomorrow and see. Also, when I hit download, the window below that showed logging in successful (don’t remember exact words) after that the whole application window vanished. I tried this twice with same result. Later I found that error file. Maybe something in my os might be blocking it? Later when I have time I try it on my old laptop which is on windows 10 and see what happens.

          Sounds good. Let me know how it goes. Hopefully it’s just instance instability.

            So I tried again. I deleted the application folder then downloaded it again and executed it. Got the same error message. Then did the same on my old laptop on windows 10. This time the application didn’t execute giving me a message that some dll file is missing. Looks like this is not going to work for me for whatever reason.
