For context i did not know you can use an account from a single instance to post on another. With this in mind I have a few questions:

  1. If I can use one instance account everywhere, why can I make multiple accounts?
  2. Why isn’t there a centralised account system?
  3. What’s the use of having per instance accounts?

I’m currently considering keeping this main account and deleting the ones on other instances, because if i can interact with those instances I don’t see the need for an account.

      its a funny hybrid model, since i can subscribe to communities outside of my primary instance, and vote, comment, ect on them!

      I think that could work well if there was account migration.

    I’ve made my first account on lemmy.ml. It’s down so I can’t post anything. Now I’ve also made an account here.
