    One in Lemmy.world. Made it when lemmy.ml was suffering from outages, and returned to lemmy.ml when lemmy.world got pissy about piracy. By then, lemmy.ml was good to go.

    That lemmy.world account just collects dust nowadays.

      The piracy thingy gave the same ending to mine in favor of lemm.ee, the good thing about the Fediverse is that if any other aggregator site, like Reddit did the crappy/un announced move like that we would get rekt… Meanwhile thanks to the Fediverse we could react and stay here without losing it all… That seems like the fucking future if you ask me.

    Just 2, one admin account and one “undercover” account. If lemmy could add support for hiding admin/mod tags when we aren’t making “official” announcements that would be great. Unfortunately the devs seem to dislike the feature, so alt account it is.

      I don’t mind the admin tag. Only users on my own instance can see it and I like being accessible to them. I think I’ve brought out the “mod” voice about twice, ever.

      Edit: oh to answer OP’s question, I have a couple of alts - all the same username and used to test different apps or federation. I don’t know if there are any instances blocking aussie.zone, but I’d use them to check if a user makes a query. I only comment/post with this account.

    I made three different accounts but I really didn’t know what instance to use at first. Now I have landed at the only one I use.

        Not a whole lot. One I used had no down votes and another kept going down. So I just stuck with lemm.ee but alot of the communities I use are on other instances. That is what I didn’t get at first, that you could subscribe to any community on different instances unless they got defederated from your instance.

    I have 3, the original one I signed up with after the Reddexodus at the community I identified most with at the start, one with the same name on a community I prefer more now, but keep the old one as a backup. And a final one for porn.

    I created an account for posting manly-hairy nsfw pics, and I’m not posting anything :)

    One of the things I miss about Reddit is being able to create accounts without manual approval, and/or without having to supply an email address.

    I only have one alt in the Lemmyverse and the only reason I have it is because I’m a burrow mod and an admin informed me that reports made by Lemmy World members don’t show up for Lemm Ee mods, so she (the admin) asked if I could make a Lemmy World alt to help me check reports made by members. The alt is @KaneLivesInDeath@lemmy.world

      Reports being shared across instances sounds like it would be an useful feature. Hope it gets added in the future.
