The problem there is subbing to all my communities on each instance. It’s getting to be a longer and longer schlep through that community list to find the ones I want. Plus I might have conversations going on multiple instances, which I will not remember to check on or even which instances I have a conversation going in.
It’s a bit of a pain but not the end of the world. I switched my main account on Reddit after 8 years. It didn’t take more than an hour to subscribe to all my subs again. And there are fewer communities on lemmy (if you discount the multiples).
You know, there’s nothing wrong with having accounts on multiple instances, just in case something happens on your main instance.
I agree with this fine gentleperson. They seem wise and totally cool and stuff.

The more mature lemmy becomes the less realistic it will be to have multiple accounts for the same purpose.
