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!
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
One. Isn’t that kind of the point?
One. I am a dumb dumb and don’t quite understand the point of being on multiple instances. Also so many of them are weirdly… ideological??
Mostly just to explore, and overtime it’ll become less important once the game of defederation-chicken cools down. The only other reason I see might be if a particular instance is blocked from Lemmy.world but you want to see the content still.
I’m happy where I am and don’t really feel the need to use any other ones.
Just the one (on lemmy.world). Any more would get confusing.
Might possibly get a porn one, but sooner or later I will end up posting a long, technical post on road safety or something similar as @pantycumslutboi or something similar… which could be interesting and amusing for other participatns in that discussion

I signed up on Sopuli.xyz and that’s it. I haven’t really had a need to sign up on another instance.
I’m on 5 instances, primarily for redundancy just in case an instance experiences hiccups I could login to another.
Three but the other two are for porn
Same.
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.
- 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.
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
Three. lemmy.ml, sh.itjust.works, and lemmynsfw
lemmy.ml because I was a relatively early adopter in the reddit migration. sh.itjust.works because they’re the largest instance I’m aware of that defederates the fewest other instances. If there were a large instance that didn’t defederate anyone, I’d definitely join.
sh.itjust.works is what I consider my “main” account currently, but unfortunately beehaw has the largest gaming community, so I have to keep a lemmy.ml tab open for it too. I use lemmy.ml on the living room computer so there isn’t porn on the tv all day.
Either way, it’s handy to have accounts on at least two different instances for when your main instance is down.
