- One for business and one for pleasure (lemmynsfw.com)
 - This is the way 
 
- Two: First on world, but it was pretty laggy so I changed to lemm.ee. The entire experience is better. - Exactly the same! - I still admire and am super thankful to @ruud for all the time, effort and money he and his friends are pouring into trying to optimize world. 
- Same. Did it partly for my own experience, but also to move way and give new users and a chance to join us. :) 
- Pretty much same here. I couldn’t actually sign into the first one because I hadn’t put in my email. Now I’m on lemm.ee! 
- Exactly the same here! 
 
- Two. One for lemmy.world but then due to the issues, moved to lemm.ee which is my current main. - I did the exact same 
 
- Two. I started on lemmy.ml, but then I spun up my own instance for me and a couple friends who mentioned wanting to check out lemmy. 
- 3! One for porn, one that was my main but then the instance got overrun by lunatics and got subsequently defederated by all the main instances, and this one 
- Started on lemmy.ml when I didn’t know anything about lemmy. Switched to lemmy.world after getting annoyed with the tankie shit. Then switched to Midwest.social because lemmy.world was way over inundated and barely functioning.
 
- I opened an account in lemmy.world first, simply because I didn’t know better. Then I realized that it’ll be a good idea to stay on a smaller instance. Been with lemmy.sdf.org since and I’m pretty happy with it. - What are the advantages of being on a smaller instance? - Less people, lower chance of defederation. Also, faster servers, and I love SDF as an organization even beyond the fediverse. 
 
- Ditto, but replace lemmy.sdf.org with vlemmy. 
 
- Juat one, VLemmy. - I signed up about two weeks ago I think? And I picked one that seemed large enough and permissive enough to be stable but not the biggest because I knew that one was going to get flooded with new users and suffer once the rest of reddit decided to jump ship. - So far, seems to have been the right choice. 
- Just one, I’m glad I’m able to interact with all instances from this account, I think if I felt I had to make so many accounts I’d get overwhelmed and quit lemmy 
- Only one - on lemm.ee. Have been working great so far :) 
- Only one, I was tempted to sign up to another but I only just about got a nice mix of subscribed communities on this one and don’t have the patience to go through it again. I don’t really see the point, either, unless you are signing up to a second one that isn’t federated with your current one. - I only just about got a nice mix of subscribed communities on this one and don’t have the patience to go through it again - There’s this tool that allows you to automate that process: https://github.com/wescode/lemmy_migrate 
 
- Just the one (lemmy.world), but also have a kbin account just out of curiosity. Been using Lemmy much more though 🙃 
- Two because I instantly got banned from the first one - Why? what did you do? - I said that the lemmy.ml admins were marxist-leninists, I’m still unsure what was controversial about it - Ayy, lmao 
- Hmmm 
 
 
 
- One, since three years ago. Lemmy.ml , but due the massive exodus from reddit I’m looking for an alternative. Looking for smaller instances. Any recommendation? Any instance that speaks Spanish or mix English and Spanish? 
- 2 as of today. My main is on BeeHaw, but I realized that some of the communities I wanted to follow were on defederated instances, so I signed up for programming.dev. I think I’m going to use it for the tech-related communities (plus anything defederated) and BeeHaw for the rest - deleted by creator

- what does it mean if a community is defederated? does that mean that community can only be accessed by the instance it is hosted on? - A specific instance (like BeeHaw) can defederate other instances. It’s basically like blocking that instance so users on BeeHaw can’t interact with that instance. - So for example if BeeHaw defederated Lenny.World, BeeHaw users won’t be able to see communities from Lemmy.World? - What about if Lemmy.World users comment on Lemmy.ml posts, can BeeHaw users see Lemmy.World user’s comments?

- Similar but I started in Lemmy.ml. Then found programming.dev.
