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

[-] kuraitengai@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

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

[-] counselwolf@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

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?

[-] lhamil64@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] counselwolf@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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?

[-] unce@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I'm on two right now. It seems like there are issues with comments loading from other instances. For example I commented on a post hosted on instance A from my instance B, but I couldn't see the replies to my comment without going to instance A directly. This left me unable to respond directly to their reply without making an account on instance A

All of them! hahaha, I will own the fediverse now!

[-] megane_kun@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Two as of the moment, and I hope I don't need to add more.

[-] BendyLemmy@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Haha I cannot say for sure. I certainly started to duplicate my credentials... so now I'm more likely to be logged in as BendyLemmy.

So initially it was Lemmy.ml (which wasn't working too well) and it got annoying that I wasn't logged in when opening links - so BeeHaw, Lemmy.world, https://fosstodon.org/ is BendyToy,...

One thing I'm finding useful now in Bitwarden is that I can autofill and copy (so just refresh for a new password) to get the same username for each one... but it's kind of getting out of hand.

It's a little frustrated that we can't use a kind of centralised profile - like the way an 'opendesktop' account can be used to log in to various instances of websites. If I log in the Opendesktop website, and then go to Mastodon, I find my Opendesktop account gets logged in there - so there's more fragmentation.

Overal it is just very confusing.

[-] Kushia@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

One day I hope we have federated identities. The tech exists but it's not yet woven into how Lemmy does things.

[-] reclipse@lemdro.id 2 points 1 year ago

All of them

[-] 0next@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

I only recently joined after hearing about lemmy. So far, I've been happy with sopuli.xyz alone.

[-] zerbey@infosec.pub 2 points 1 year ago

I'm on lemmy.world (which is being crushed by new users) and infosec.pub. Considering just spinning up my own server.

[-] Backfield9368@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

Two. One on lemmy.ml originally, and then I made a second on feddit.de because I live in Germany so I thought a German instance would be nice, and they don't show NSFW posts which makes browsing in the office a little less awkward.

[-] hitagi@ani.social 1 points 1 year ago

I have one in kbin, lemmy.world, lemmy.one, and this one that I'm using right now in my own instance. So 4 total.

I don't use the first three much anymore now that I have this one but prior to this, I was mostly active in lemmy.one

[-] tunetardis@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

I have one on lemmy.ca and one on kbin.social. The latter was mostly because federation was broken at the time I signed on with the reddit migration.

I'd say I spend more time on lemmy now? Yes, kbin's interface looks more modern and slick but seems less functional? I particularly like that you can collapse threads on lemmy. And I guess a bunch of apps are headed to lemmy first so there's that.

Usually, I like to post/reply using the kbin account if it's to a kbin magazine, but something weird happened the other day. I actually saw a new post on kbin.social from my lemmy account before it showed up on kbin. I'm not sure how that's even possible?

[-] Cyder@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Two: my main on Lemmy.one and another on Reddthat.com which was the first account I created. I also have a kbin.social account. Really hedging my bets.

[-] Elkaki123@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago

Only 1, haven't needed to have more accounts and there isn't an instantance I have wanted to visit but that has blocked mine yet, so no need to have another one right now

[-] G0nzo@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

2 Lemmy instances and also kbin. Wasn't planned, but my first instance was so overrun that there were frequent server problems.

[-] kunic@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

3, though I’m including kbin.social too. I’m settling on Lemmy.world for mobile use, and kbin.social for PC use. I made a Lemmy.ml account at the start of the blackout and just never used it.

[-] Communist@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Two, my main is beehaw but I use this account when they're down.

[-] ZebraGoose@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

4, Lemmy.world beehaw.org sh.itjust.works and my own selfhosted 😄

[-] Yeah2206@infosec.pub 1 points 1 year ago

One, since I didn't know how to pick. But it seems great so far.

2 for kbin, because I had no clue, but Lemmy is much snappier. Most likely will be deleting those.

[-] Deez@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Four.

  • Lemmy.ml, but not sure if they were accepting sign ups and wasn’t accepted.
  • Beehaw, but found communities on Lemmy.world I couldn’t see.
  • Lemmy.world, but had performance issues and realised I couldn’t see Beehaw 🤦‍♂️.
  • Finally landed on Lemm.ee and I’m happy here.
[-] ieatpillowtags@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Beehaw has chosen to defederate from lemmy.world so that makes sense.

[-] Deez@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I knew they had defederated, but didn’t fully think through joining Lemmy.world would have the same issues of not being able to see the entire Lemmyverse.

[-] noodles@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 year ago

Only one so far but I might switch for another less laggy one.

[-] Badass_panda@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Two! One on Lemmy.world a day or two after it was started ... that one is now painfully too slow, and a second that was originally going to be just for porn but now is my main, at least till world is sorted out

[-] Lasso1971@thelemmy.club 1 points 1 year ago

Two, I'm liking this instance more than lemmy.world

[-] Terevos@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

6 or 7..I kinda lost track.

Most were to evaluate the best instance.

One or two were just to force manual federation sync of a community I moderate.

[-] wilberfan@lemmy.film 1 points 1 year ago

Looks like...[checks sidebar] three: .world, .ee, .film. Oh, and kbin. So far .ee seems the peppiest. Wish I didn't have to recreate my subscriptions each time! 😏

[-] Mekboy_nutkrakka@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago

2 but the first was a quick anonymous test that i deleted after quickly getting used to lemmy and this one.

[-] mim@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago
[-] DarthVi@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Three, first on lemmy.ml, then programming.dev and also lemm.ee.

Lemmy.ml loads very slowly lately, probably due to the recent massive influx of Reddit refugees.

Programming.dev is fine, but from there I mostly see empty pages or less posts when visiting communities hosted on other instances.

Lemm.ee might be a good compromise: loads faster than lemmy.ml and a good generalist instance with a decent amount of users.
