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.
I signed up for lemmy.ca after lemmy.world became more or less unusable for me. I can also see creating multiple accounts for different interests.
Porn accounts. Main and porn.
Why did your first account become unusable? What was the problem?
lemmy.world experienced explosive growth and the servers were either quite slow or were experiencing persistent 502 errors. Switching to a smaller instance the experience has been a lot more performant.
Having different accounts for different interests suggest to me that there's a missing feature in Lemmy. I can see why some people might want that, but Reddit had multisubs for that need. Lemmy doesn't have that.
Yes some kind of multi community support would be good. However, I think for more 'sensitive' content it may be inevitable to see content from widely defederarated instances.
