This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
And it legit takes 5 minutes to sign up for 5 instances and see the differences, mine showed the same content for the most part, only lemmy.world was missing the piracy community, other than that it was all the same and any nervousness I had about it went away after seeing the feeds being the same.
there really isnt much friction either if you dont cate about piracy otherwise id have stayed on lemmyworld when vyjr reccomended it, they really just need to try it, I complained until I tried it
Not only do I don't mind multiple instances, I welcome it. It's a feature for me, not a bug. But having to create multiple accounts is a no-no and what keeps people away. People say you only need one but that's not true if you want to be active in multiple instances.
If the fediverse had a way to unify account creation, that would be a game changer. It's pretty much what's holding the fediverse down, be it Lemmy, Pixelfed, PeerTube, etc. It's frustrating because without that limitation I could see the corpos being given a run for their money.
