How many lemmy instances have you signed up for?

2. One for business and one for pleasure (lemmynsfw.com)

3! One for porn, one that was my main but then the instance got overrun by lunatics and got subsequently defederated by all the main instances, and this one

Two: First on world, but it was pretty laggy so I changed to lemm.ee. The entire experience is better.

Two because I instantly got banned from the first one

5 - one Beehaw, but after taking me 2 weeks to be accepted, I moved on to lemmy.world and now switched to lemm.ee since lemmy.world is having some problems with the huge influx of new users. Also have another one on lemmynsfw.com for...Well... Reasons. I also have one on Kbin, altough I don't really use it since 99% of my Lemmy/Kbin browsing in on Android and I don't know of any KBin apps as of now, besides, I think I'll just settle down on lemm.ee for now.

Two. One for lemmy.world but then due to the issues, moved to lemm.ee which is my current main.

I opened an account in lemmy.world first, simply because I didn't know better. Then I realized that it'll be a good idea to stay on a smaller instance. Been with lemmy.sdf.org since and I'm pretty happy with it.

Just one, I'm glad I'm able to interact with all instances from this account, I think if I felt I had to make so many accounts I'd get overwhelmed and quit lemmy

Two. I started on lemmy.ml, but then I spun up my own instance for me and a couple friends who mentioned wanting to check out lemmy.

Only one, I was tempted to sign up to another but I only just about got a nice mix of subscribed communities on this one and don't have the patience to go through it again. I don't really see the point, either, unless you are signing up to a second one that isn't federated with your current one.

Also, shout out to ReddThat.com, absolutely zero glitches or issues so far except for those that seem to be fediverse wide. Good place to be with good people.

Three total, but was using lemmy.world as my main until recently with all the groaning under the pressure of all the new signups so yesterday I spent about an hour or so methodically recreating my subscribe feed on lemm.ee

Nothing at all against the admins over at .world but when it’s pushing the absolute limits of capacity with all the new people coming by, it makes for a different experience all together on a smaller instance. Course because it’s hiccuping over there I’m seeing some significant delays in federation but whaddyagonnado.

3 so far.. but it's mainly trial and error.

Started off with Lemmy.ml then wanted a bigger instance.

Moved to Lemmy.world then ended up having too many users and lagging.

So I moved to a good compromise: Lemmy.blahaj.zone

But yeah. Three so far with the exact same username 😬

Just the one (lemmy.world), but also have a kbin account just out of curiosity. Been using Lemmy much more though 🙃

3. Started on lemmy.ml when I didn’t know anything about lemmy. Switched to lemmy.world after getting annoyed with the tankie shit. Then switched to Midwest.social because lemmy.world was way over inundated and barely functioning.

Well, I just joined today, so only one. But since you can subscribe and post to communities on any other instance, I’m not sure why I would need to sign up on another unless I wanted to change. That’s what makes the fediverse amazing.

I'm pretty sure I registered on Beehaw a few months back, but can't seem to login there with my usual credentials. Maybe I just visited the site without registering. I'm happy with just lemmy.world for now though.

Juat one, VLemmy.

I signed up about two weeks ago I think? And I picked one that seemed large enough and permissive enough to be stable but not the biggest because I knew that one was going to get flooded with new users and suffer once the rest of reddit decided to jump ship.

So far, seems to have been the right choice.

How many instances i have accounts on? Only 1, this one I'm using right now haha

All of them! hahaha, I will own the fediverse now!

One

One, lemmy.ml but want to change to a smaller one, any recommendation?

Just one. Tried kbin but didn't like it.

Two, and a Kbin. The first instance was just for bots (friendly ones I made), then I signed up for this account to use as an alt as Kbin is a bit flaky. Kbin is my main account but I'm using this one quite a bit due to frequent 500 errors over there.

More than 10. I'm still waiting the confirmations from some of the instances.

I read some weeks ago that lemmy instances are like email providers. So I've taken to hear the advice that I should try different instances before settle into one. It has also been part of my lemmy leaning process. I won't recommend it, though.

Joined lemmy.world on June 12th, around July 3rd when it got overloaded I joined vlemmy.net, been happy ever since. So 2 instances. I still sometimes check lemmy.world to see if my posts/comments are posting because vlemmy is facing federation issues due to the reddit HoD.

Only one - on lemm.ee. Have been working great so far :)

Only one, don't feel like having multiple accounts of something that I have to remember to use.

I have accounts on 3 different instances.

Two. One on lemmy.ml originally, and then I made a second on feddit.de because I live in Germany so I thought a German instance would be nice, and they don't show NSFW posts which makes browsing in the office a little less awkward.

Just 2: Lemmy.ml and lemmy.world.

Still trying to get my bearings before I decided when/if I want to host

I setup my own instance. Performance is much better than the big instances, but looks like propagation of all the federated content is a bit slow.

Hopefully update to Lemmy improve the syncing.

I made 3 accounts but I just deleted 2 because imho it didn't made sense. I kept the one on the smallest instance for it's reactivity and because it's easier to keep track of things I want to save/follow

Sadly, I had to make an account in two instances.

I'm on lemmy.world (which is being crushed by new users) and infosec.pub. Considering just spinning up my own server.

6 or 7..I kinda lost track.

Most were to evaluate the best instance.

One or two were just to force manual federation sync of a community I moderate.

Two so far. Started on slrpnk.net because I liked their community list and general theme and focus. Added midwest.social because I was thinking of hosting a community and I didn't feel like it fit Solarpunk's tight focus, and I didn't want to detract from that. Midwest is now my main, but I actively use both.

Why would I need more than one? A couple comments don't show up once in a while, but other than that, I can get everything from one account.

just 1, i don't have time for multiple ones.

1. I started out with the og Lemmy.ml.
2. Then created my own instance/bot Lemmit.
3. Thought Lemmy.ml was to slow/unstable, so created an account on Lemmy.world
4. Gotta have a separate account for grown up stuff, so signed up on LemmyNSFW.com
5. Gee... Lemmy.world is kinda slow/unstable... Better sign up on lemm.ee...

I'll probably retire the lemmy.ml and world accounts though.

3 (4 if you count kbin). Beehaw (which took weeks to be approved) so moved to Lemmy world, which is now overloaded and slow so Lemm.ee which is snappy and fast.

3, Lemmy.world beehaw.org sh.itjust.works and my own selfhosted 😄

I have one on lemmy.ca and one on kbin.social. The latter was mostly because federation was broken at the time I signed on with the reddit migration.

I'd say I spend more time on lemmy now? Yes, kbin's interface looks more modern and slick but seems less functional? I particularly like that you can collapse threads on lemmy. And I guess a bunch of apps are headed to lemmy first so there's that.

Usually, I like to post/reply using the kbin account if it's to a kbin magazine, but something weird happened the other day. I actually saw a new post on kbin.social from my lemmy account before it showed up on kbin. I'm not sure how that's even possible?

Looks like...[checks sidebar] three: .world, .ee, .film. Oh, and kbin. So far .ee seems the peppiest. Wish I didn't have to recreate my subscriptions each time! 😏

2 as of today. My main is on BeeHaw, but I realized that some of the communities I wanted to follow were on defederated instances, so I signed up for programming.dev. I think I'm going to use it for the tech-related communities (plus anything defederated) and BeeHaw for the rest

I'm on two right now. It seems like there are issues with comments loading from other instances. For example I commented on a post hosted on instance A from my instance B, but I couldn't see the replies to my comment without going to instance A directly. This left me unable to see or respond directly to their reply without making an account on instance A

Two as of the moment, and I hope I don't need to add more.

Haha I cannot say for sure. I certainly started to duplicate my credentials... so now I'm more likely to be logged in as BendyLemmy.

So initially it was Lemmy.ml (which wasn't working too well) and it got annoying that I wasn't logged in when opening links - so BeeHaw, Lemmy.world, https://fosstodon.org/ is BendyToy,...

One thing I'm finding useful now in Bitwarden is that I can autofill and copy (so just refresh for a new password) to get the same username for each one... but it's kind of getting out of hand.

It's a little frustrated that we can't use a kind of centralised profile - like the way an 'opendesktop' account can be used to log in to various instances of websites. If I log in the Opendesktop website, and then go to Mastodon, I find my Opendesktop account gets logged in there - so there's more fragmentation.

Overal it is just very confusing.

All of them

Four.

• Lemmy.ml, but not sure if they were accepting sign ups and wasn’t accepted.
• Beehaw, but found communities on Lemmy.world I couldn’t see.
• Lemmy.world, but had performance issues and realised I couldn’t see Beehaw 🤦‍♂️.
• Finally landed on Lemm.ee and I’m happy here.

I only recently joined after hearing about lemmy. So far, I've been happy with sopuli.xyz alone.

One, since three years ago. Lemmy.ml , but due the massive exodus from reddit I'm looking for an alternative. Looking for smaller instances. Any recommendation? Any instance that speaks Spanish or mix English and Spanish?

Only 1, haven't needed to have more accounts and there isn't an instantance I have wanted to visit but that has blocked mine yet, so no need to have another one right now

One, since I didn't know how to pick. But it seems great so far.

2 for kbin, because I had no clue, but Lemmy is much snappier. Most likely will be deleting those.

Two! One on Lemmy.world a day or two after it was started ... that one is now painfully too slow, and a second that was originally going to be just for porn but now is my main, at least till world is sorted out

Only one so far but I might switch for another less laggy one.

Two: my main on Lemmy.one and another on Reddthat.com which was the first account I created. I also have a kbin.social account. Really hedging my bets.

Two, my main is beehaw but I use this account when they're down.

2 Lemmy instances and also kbin. Wasn't planned, but my first instance was so overrun that there were frequent server problems.

Two, I'm liking this instance more than lemmy.world

2 but the first was a quick anonymous test that i deleted after quickly getting used to lemmy and this one.

One on VLemmy.net, 3 on Kbin.

I wanted to get away using the main Kbin.social server, but am finding my accounts on smaller Kbin instances (Fedia.Io and Readit.buzz) have inferior content to Kbin.social. I will often find posts and image previews missing on smaller instances. I also hate how Kbin warns about missing content any time you Federated magazines.

Also, I got tired of waiting for an iPhone app for Kbin and have started using WefWef for Lemmy.

As a result, I am using VLemmy mostly for my browsing.

I have one in kbin, lemmy.world, lemmy.one, and this one that I'm using right now in my own instance. So 4 total.

I don't use the first three much anymore now that I have this one but prior to this, I was mostly active in lemmy.one

edit: I forgot to mention that I use the other three to test federation between my instance and others.

Two. Started on sopuli.xyz then made one on lemmy.world.

I'm still not super certain how lemmy works, but there seems to be more activity on lemmy.world. Also, when I tried subscribing to communities on sopuli, most of them said "Pending" and I still wasn't subbed after a couple days. Lemmy.world seems easier.

1

Three, first on lemmy.ml, then programming.dev and also lemm.ee.

Lemmy.ml loads very slowly lately, probably due to the recent massive influx of Reddit refugees.

Programming.dev is fine, but from there I mostly see empty pages or less posts when visiting communities hosted on other instances.

Lemm.ee might be a good compromise: loads faster than lemmy.ml and a good generalist instance with a decent amount of users.

3, though I’m including kbin.social too. I’m settling on Lemmy.world for mobile use, and kbin.social for PC use. I made a Lemmy.ml account at the start of the blackout and just never used it.

Two. Got my start on lemmy.ml because it was run by the devs and i thought it would be the most reliable. Boy, was i wrong. Got rather annoyed with the instability and now I'm on sdf.org. Is there a way to sync profiles across instances? Would like to see my post history shared between my profiles.
