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?
subscriptions and blocks
I use lemmy.world for everything and lemmynsfw.com for… You know 😂
My lemmynsfw only shows whack celebrity photos. What am I doing wrong?
Enabling NSFW is probably most of it, but I also blocked the user Madness (or something like that) who posts most of the celeb spam, and my feed has been 100% better.
Are you logged in? Most of the NSFW stuffs won’t show up if you’re not logged in and hasn’t enable NSFW in your account
Same I have this one and a lemmynsfw for y’know reasons…
What’s the benefit of a separate login? I guess maybe if you comment on NSFW posts then people don’t see it when they look at a comment you made on a normal post. Anything else?
If you spend most of your time at work scrolling then it can be useful to have everything NSFW on a separate feed
My instance has defederated with them so I needed a separate account.
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
In terms of Lemmy, I’m just on Lemmy.world, I have no real reason to sign up for something else. I’m also on Mastodon, though.
One for lemmy.world and one for dbzero in case world goes down
My main is kbin.social.
I have accounts on a lemmy instance (made while figuring out where I wanted to go) and a couple of mastodons (made symbolically when twitter got Musked, but not used because I didn’t use twitter).
- lemm.ee for the first, then realized programming.dev existed. And, since I’m a programming dev, it made sense to sign up there. So, here I am.
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 outI’ll be in the cold, cold ground before I recognize Missourah!
The midwest is named after the Midwest Territory. Missouri was never part of the Midwest Territory
Tell that to the census bureau
It’s real easy if you just ignore every modern meaning and conception of the Midwest and just use a 150+ year old definition of it. But seriously… the Arch. The Arch! Missouri is definitely the Midwest.
See, I’m actually in Oklahoma, which is even worse, but I’m trying to get the hell out and head for Chicago
One is enough (lemmy.world) unless I need an alt for a specific instance
- Lemmy.one, for a broad normie experience. Kbin, idk I was trying it out but like lemmy better. Lemmygrad and hexbear.net because they’re not widely federated.
Two, programming dev and kbin social
I’m on 5 instances, primarily for redundancy just in case an instance experiences hiccups I could login to another.
