Question here from a new Lemmy user-

Is there any point to creating accounts across multiple Lemmy servers? For example if I wanted to claim the same username on a small hobby Lemmy but also a large general purpose one, does it make sense for me to create multiple accounts, or is that just a waste of time/resources?

When I first got involved in this, I had a kbin and a lemmy account. I ended up focusing on the kbin, but it was useful to have the lemmy to see how things moderated. Kbin is dead now, but I still will occasionally use the lemmy to see how things look. I find it valuable. As an mbin person now, I think I should have some other instances in the mix as well. It's a federation, and for me, I would like things to be appropriate for all of us. It's kind of fun! Even if I am not a big user of other instances/federations?
