First time posting, but i was wondering if i was the only one who had more than 2 accounts in total on here
I’ve got three. I started with a beehaw account but now have one at sh.itjust.works after beehaw defederated and a third at lemmynsfw for…reasons.
You have reasons too‽ We should be best friends!
I have one Lemmy account for now. Following the KISS protocol (keep it simple).
Started with one at lemmy.world, moved to this one at feddit.uk because I wanted to interact with both beehaw and lemmy.world which were defederated from each other. I have one at kbin but I’ll probably access everything from here for simplicity. So, 3.
I’ve got one on kbin and two on Lemmy. Don’t know wtf I’m doing but ideally I’ll stick with this kbin account since eventually it will be an “all in one” account for kbin, Lemmy and mastodon. Just waiting on a dedicated kbin app.
Two, but only because I can’t log into the other fediverse instance that I’ve registered (sh.itjust.works).
Four right now. I have a kbin that I’m keeping contained to kbin for the time being. I have one on Beehaw that was going to be my main on Lemmy, but I made another on .world to interact everywhere since Beehaw defederated for now. And one for NSFW-only.
I have only one and i really dont want to have more accounts but i cannot access lemmy.world and many others i think it is because every lemmy instance holds its own list of lemmy instancies and each instance has to somehow be approved by target instance or is my inderstanding of this platform incorrect? Anyway i will give it some time and then i think i move to differrnt instance with more connections so i still will be using one account.
Two for me, one lemmy and one kbin
I just have my lemmy.world account.

I think I’m up to 12 now across both platforms.
May i ask why? Personally the only reason i have 5 is because most of the ones i signed up for initially became heavily overloaded
Two, one on beehaw which was my first one, and one on kbin cause it’s cool.
Edit: if you are thinking of joining kbin give fediverse.boo and readit.buzz a try. Two stable kbin instancesI know for mastodon, you can move your account over to other mastodon instances while keeping all your data and such.
Is there currently a way to do that with kbin? In case I wanted to branch out to a more niche instance but keep my profile and messages and subscribed magazines and such?
I would be interested from the users who have multiple accounts, do you use the same name and password everywhere, so do you use the accounts as “one”, or is it different for each instance?
If so, why?
For security reasons, if the database of an instance is cracked?
Do you not want your NSFW account’s postings to be associated with your other stuff?So far same name, different passwords. Not really much thought given to any of it, I just wanted to get up and running quickly and I’ll possibly change it when things settle down (I’m not really attached to this name). Different passwords is just good standard practice.
I use a password manager (Keepass) so every service has a different password usually 24 characters with upper-lower case, numbers, and special.
For critical services like paypal and email, I also use different usernames.
just one, lemmy.world
How do you feel that Lemmy.world was defederated from beehaw?
Stupid question. How is everyone managing the accounts, emails and content? How do you manage multiple profiles? (As I understand apps and tools are still lacking).
Password manager + you can add multiple accounts in the jerboa app
Thanks. I’ll check that out. Does fediverse restrict using the same email for multiple accounts?
Not sure I haven’t tried doing that I used aliases for the instances that required an email
