We’re about to enter another Reddit mass migration phase starting tonight. We’ve already attracted the users most actively engaged with the protests and Reddit’s changes—users who are driven enough to put in the effort to grow the Fediverse.
Now we need to make it feel like home to casual users and lurkers. Not just attract them for a few visits, but keep it interesting enough that they stay here in the coming weeks/months.
Major kudos to all the developers working day and night to bring us familiar-feeling apps and interfaces on insanely short timelines. But what can the rest of us do to make Kbin and Lemmy feel like home to all the new Reddit refugees? Populate Lemmy and Kbin with as much quality content as you can find!
Over the next few weeks, fill your magazines/communities with as much good the content as you can. Post comments and subscribe to things. Click that upvote button on content or comments you like.
Not sure where to find good content? Ironically, check out your favorite subreddits for ideas. Make sure we have the best of the content you can find on Reddit. See a good article or link? Post it here! Don’t be shy about posting to interactive communities like Ask Lemmy- we’re after volume.
For OC Reddit posts, see if there’s a non-Reddit page to post here. I don’t know whether it’s acceptable to copy text posts, but if you do, make sure you at least give credit/copy a link to the original post.
Basically, do everything you can to engage over the next few weeks and avoid lurking. Show off the Fediverse and welcome the next group of Reddit refugees to their new home.
Edit: I completely forgot to call out all the people hosting and upgrading instances to help with the massive influx of users and keep the sites stable. Thank you, hosts!
I think I’ve made more posts/comments in the last fortnight, than the last year on Reddit.
I’ve been posting interesting articles to nearly half a dozen communities each per day, even if nobody is responding.
I believe it’s worth it to have this activity for those who pass by and see how many people showed up to the party before them.
This is the way
Absolutely, I’m way more actively engaged on Lemmy than I was in the recent past on Reddit. I feel like the community isn’t too flooded yet, and conversation can be more easily seen. I’m very excited for the future here.
Thank you. As a recent refugee I like that lemmy can fill a void but it’s going to take community effort to have the engagement and diversity that Reddit did. As a decade long Reddit lurker I’ve decided that my lemmy experience will be better if I upvote the things that contribute, comment instead of just lurking, and rather than expecting to jump into this expecting the traffic and variety of the old place, I and the other refugees have an opportunity to make our little spaces in the fediverse a little brighter and grow with the community. It’s an exciting time after the dread of the deadline began to grow. I’m happy I’m here, and I’m happy you (and everyone) are here! Let’s grow together!
Yep, the perception of business and web traffic is what drives actual traffic
This is my first comment as a reddit refugee ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I just made my account today after sync died, and I don’t know what else to do so here I am lol
Quality content is one thing. Engagement is another. I see lots of new posts that are good, but little to no comments. What we need is a few good communities with lots of engagement. On reddit I was more of a lurker, here I will start to do my best to comment more in the hopes it helps. (Still, my comments will probably be stupid and uninteresting, so it might do more harm than good, lol)
I am doing my best to avoid lurking. It’s tricky though, I am so used to only commenting on things like once a month. Exhausting work I tell ya.
Same here, I wanna post but can’t get a good idea on what to post…
Same boat for sure. In my 11 years or so on reddit, it was definitely a comment a month kind of thing. Maybe even everything 6 months.
All I posted on Reddit was my gamertag in gaming communities… now it’s time to add words… i don’t know how to do this lol
But you did it! Just say stupid shit honestly. Go on a picture in memes and just comment something stupid and people will go along with it
I’m in the same boat. This is a good start, right?
Maybe? It feels weird.
I’m actually finding myself more motivated to comment on lemmy because it’s less likely to get lost in the churn.
I see ya! and I appreciate you being here Datas \o/
Yea I’m thinking of reposting some of my old posts from Reddit that did well to contribute
Honestly that would be fine. Having that content here would be nice anyhow, we wouldn’t have to leave as often.
Yeah it’s kind of amusing. I’ve gotten so used to mindlessly doom scrolling and here it’s like damn can’t just lurk there’s not enough to just lurk over. Lord I have to use that keyboard thingie and form sentences.
deleted by creator
Honestly same, like I genuinely want lemmy to succeed but unsure since most of the communities I frequent are still on Reddit (mostly gacha games subs)
I’m still trying to engage more here than I usually do on Reddit
Can confirm, migrated because they took away my Apollo! Now I’m using wefwef as my new Apollo
Thanks for pointing me towards this. Loving wefwef. Works wonderfully!
Is it an iOS app? I can’t find it in the Android Google or Samsung store.
Should be platform agnostic, it’s a browser app.
It’s a web app instead of native app. I’m using https://wefwef.app/
They said they are adding an android skin as well on the road map. I’m assuming you can simply use it on an android phone now, although I haven’t tested so could be wrong.
https://github.com/aeharding/wefwef
I’m not sure how you do it on android but in iOS you can add it to your Home Screen and it opens up similar to how a native app would.
of all the android apps I’ve tried, wefwef seems the best for me, especially as a fan of pretty GUI
I would love an Android native app, but this actually looks pretty great. This and Jerboa are the closest I’ve seen to RIF so far.
Jerboa strikes me as RiF without the features and usability I liked about that app, at least for now, hopefully it gets better
It’s definitely got a lot of growing and improvement to do, but I think it has a lot of potential once it works out its kinks and can get through the backlog of enhancement recommendations.
It’s a mobile web app, so iOS users can visit https://wefwef.app using Safari, then click the Share icon, the click ‘Add to Home Screen’.
I don’t use Android so I don’t know if there’s a similar process to turn a link to a website into an icon on the Home Screen. I just did a web search and found this website, which I hope is useful for you https://beebom.com/ways-turn-any-website-android-app/
(Also I’m new to wefwef and this is my first comment using it)
Yeah it’s pretty much the same. PWAs are great when developed well and cross platform. Unfortunately they usually are not developed well and push you to go to their mobile apps.
Seems like a good way to not have to mess around with App Store approval and stuff though
Sure is. Things like payment systems don’t require giving the stores 40% of their cut too and notifications / background / permission limits on apps. Unfortunately PWAs got the issue of harder for average user to install and thus native apps win.
Is it that hard for people? I just opened in a browser and hit the button to add it to the home page. Easy.
I think there’s also an iOS app, but you can just go to https://wefwef.app as well
Nah it’s just a web app that you can save to your Home Screen. Works on pretty much any modern device with a browser that way.
Looks great! Just downloaded the PWA. I’ve been installing of them, though lol. So far, I’ve got Jerboa, Connect, Liftoff, the kbin PWA and now this one!
Lemmymon - gotta catch 'em all!
Hermes, mon
Yeah. I also need an iOS app. Using wefwef, but hate the browsers navbars eating like 15% of my screen.
If you install it as an app to the Home Screen it opens in a version of safari that makes it look and feel like a native iOS app. It’s very similar to Apollo in ui/ux.
Wefwef is great, very pretty :)
I come from Android land so I can’t compare it to Apollo but it certainly looks very good
It is incredibly similar in look, feel, and ui actions. I’m blown away by its seeming simplicity that hides an amazing amount of complex ui features.
Wow thank you for this, this really is the best app I’ve tried so far. Love a good webapp.
Just started using this, and I have to say… wefwef is way better than any of the current apps. By a lot.
Hello, I just migrated from Reddit and am slowly figuring things out. I’m really enjoying Lemmy and the Fediverse so far!
Are there any communities I should subscribe to? If anyone has suggestions please list them out below, thanks!
I got started with browsing the most popular communities (if you’re on a browser, click Communities in the upper left, then pick All under List of communities) and picking the ones that seemed interesting. Then I started searching for ones that mirrored my subreddits and other interests. One thing to note is that Lemmy is growing so fast that you’ll often find more than one community about the same topic, so don’t be shy about subscribing to somewhat duplicative communities until one comes out on top.
There are still some subreddits that don’t have an equivalent here yet, so I check back for those every few days to see if anyone has gotten around to them (I’m definitely not up for moderating myself)
As @[email protected] posted, you can also use https://browse.feddit.de/ to quickly search for communities and see their subscriber, post and comment count to gauge how active they are.
Welcome!
Edit: I just learned about lemmyverse.net which is an even better website to browse both instances and communities. Check it out!
Thanks for the run down, appreciate the detailed explanation! Great idea about finding mirror communities from Reddit.
One thing to note is that Lemmy is growing so fast that you’ll often find more than one community about the same topic, so don’t be shy about subscribing to somewhat duplicative communities until one comes out on top.
This bring back fond memories of browsing early Reddit lol
And this is the first time I see a Lemmy comment quoting another
Note if you find a community somewhere and you don’t see it in your instance that means no one has subscribed to it yet. You’ll have to paste the whole url on the search bar and wait maybe 30 seconds.
Or just click a link to it if it’s mentioned in a comment on lemmy!
With the 0.18 update links like this: [email protected] should “just work”, even if it hasn’t been discovered by your instance yet. (You might have to refresh after the first time)
Also you can set your “home instance” on https://lemmyverse.net and browse communities there, and it will automatically link you to it on your instance, which should handle discovery as well
My userscript (Lemmy post) can also help you with this globally on all websites :) It rewrites all links to always point to your home instance.
Oh really? That’s great development.
I have a question. I used the website, found https://lemmy.world/c/texas , but I can’t figure out how to subscribe to it in Jerboa.
Search for [email protected] in the app or your home instance. It may take a few tries if your instance has never loaded it before, but once it loads in if you subscribe they will continuously federate afterwards.

Hello! I’m still familiarizing myself with the fediverse and Lemmy, but I look forward to contributing once I’m comfortable.
I hope formatting commands are similar to old reddit, I do love my citations :)
Oh hey I recognize you from way back during the Mueller probe - if you’re that same person. Always appreciated your informative comments. I’ll probably see how around the politics communities here then!
It’s cool seeing someone here that I recognize from Reddit
This is super helpful, thank you!
This is fantastic! Definitely going to be sharing this.
Thanks!
I found this earlier today, I just went through and Re subbed to my favorite sub reddits. https://sub.rehab/
deleted by creator
Heey! It’s so awesome to see you here!
I think a big part of this is making less of the content on Lemmy, be about Lemmy (and reddit).
How many casual users are going to join, see literally half of their front page being about either Lemmy or reddit, and then just leave?
Edit: Building on this - I just joined, and my homepage currently has 3 posts that aren’t directly about either Lemmy or reddit.
I for one propose more robust ways of finding communities. Maybe if communities adopted a policy of using keywords or hashtags so it can be easier to find all the places where specific topics are being discussed…? I don’t know, I’m brand spanking new and trying to find my way; the first thing on my mind is: where am I, where is everything in reference to me, and how do I find out?
Check out lemmyverse.net - it’s a great tool to browse the communities and instances out there
And don’t forget to set your home instance by clicking the house at the top. Then all the links take you to the appropriate page on your instance so you can subscribe!
Is there a way to see this through Connect?
I’m not sure… what’s Connect?
Same. I try to find alternatives to the subreddits I used to follow, but aside from technology subs, I don’t see much of what I remember, even after using the search function in Connect. Not sure how good it is though
I really hope that the existing Lemmy instances can handle all the new users
Good point, I completely forgot to call out all the people hosting and upgrading instances to help with the massive influx and keep the sites stable.
Also don’t join ban happy instances like beehaw.
Beehaw is great, actually. Some things should not be tolerated.
I’m tired of basically every other place on the internet tolerating shitty people because of “freedom of speech” or whatever, poisoning the discussion and making it suck to actually participate.
It’s good to have a place where people actually operate on good faith, and not just to fight like everywhere else because they appeal to the lowest common denominator. Just look at how often reddit was criticized for being toxic. If you just allow everything, that is what will inevitably happen. You have to work to prevent that.
Yeah miss me with the self-righteous, hateful toxicity of pre-2012 Reddit. I left because Reddit made the user experience horrible by shutting down better apps while their own was still abysmal. Idk anything about how ban-happy specific communities are here, but I understand if heavier moderating is needed at the beginning to prevent this place from turning into Voat
Like I said in another post. Reddit active monthly is 1.6 billion . Beehaw have trouble dealing with few thousand users from 2 biggest instances, lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works. Lemmy instances needs money, we can get more money by getting more users, which means more money going towards Lemmy and the fediverse. We need to start taking money out of the trillion dollar tech giants and the profits going towards instance owners, mods and devs that make Lemmy great. If beehaw is trying to make a instance to feel safe towards advertisers and give beehaw money, I understand that. However we haven’t reach that critical mass yet.
Beehaw’s fine, no need to promote one side of Lemmy whilst laying into another.
I appreciate the need for variety but personally value safe spaces for discussion over anons right to troll with porn.
The code base needs work to allow safe spaces to exist and integrate with anons trolling now that there are a few million accounts.
It seems much more likely beehaw defeded due to the accounts here lolzing about posting homophobic content everywhere, as the instance owner is apparently gay, & posting knobs all over the feminist spaces. I suspect your take that beehaw action’s are to generate income is complete fiction, it’s to limit the ability of fuckwits on the server as the current mod tools are shite.
I don’t think the advertisement model will work for Lemmy. And it shouldn’t, I’m more than happy to donate to cover running costs. With advertising you just invite google and other players in.
¿Por qué no los dos? That’s the freedom of the fediverse, freedom of association.
Is there a way to merge accounts so you can see everything in one place without switching? If not, managing multiple accounts is cumbersome.
Lemmy servers are federated with each other, so users can participate in another server’s communities without having to create an account.* ActivityPub is the protocol that allows users to interact with compatible platforms including Kbin, Mastodon, and PeerTube.
Paraphrased from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemmy_(software)
*Servers may defederate/block other servers from participating in their communities for reasons including spam, bot activity, trolling, ideology, etc.
You can view and comment in other instances (notice that my account is from programming.dev).
If you’re on desktop, you can see the equivalent of /r/all by viewing “all” on your instance. To view a community on another instance, you use the url: {domain of your instance}/c/{community name}@{domain of the instance of that community}
For example, I’m here and commenting with the url: programming.dev/c/[email protected]
is there such a thing as an r/all of all instances?
I feel like that would get way too noisy. Anyone can make one so you’d see a lotta duplicates I’d imagine.
Thank you for spelling this out, the more times I see how people are using this network the better grasp I have of it. I’m glad I’ve figured out logging in over multiple platforms (Jerboa, Wefwef) and commenting. So far I’ve found Wefwef better than Jerboa, but was just recommended Connect. I’ll try that out next. I digress, again, thank you for contributing to my understanding of the fediverse!
Apps!
So far liftoff has dealt with this very scenario quite seemlessly.
Nice! Hopefully soon one of them can merge my Lemmy, Kbin and Mastodon accounts into a single app. Kbin just needs to release some APIs.
Yes some day I want kbin too but at least they’re federated. I should note for barbies that multiple accounts is only necessary for such cases as beehaw not connecting with two of the other biggest communities.
I know, but in my view if I want the fediverse to become mainstream, we need a way for 1.660 billion monthly active users to feel free and jump straight into the fediverse. Admins will need to find a way to monetize their instance, like ads or fediverse awards. So the instance owner can be not only cover server costs, it’s will be their job, get devs on board for FOSS development, grow the community and make the fediverse 1000% better. We need to start small first, that means we need play nicely to each other— so users that come on this board can consume content from other instances about the confusion of defederation.
Wait what’s happening with Beehaw?
Goodbye Reddit drama, hello Lemmy drama
They already did. Every user wants their specific admin led circlejerk with no disent. Else you’re a nazi. You don’t like it? Make your own instance.
Lemmy is not it, as it stands. Not whil users di y have cross instance user control and don’t depend on admins which are a worse version of power hungry Reddit mods with a more fanatical crowd.
Cross-instance control of your identity would be nice but it’s easy enough to just make multiple accounts and manage them easily in your browser and every app under the sun. We are much less beholden to power tripping arseholes here than on a platform like Reddit.
And account migration could be added in the future
No it’s not. And for every account you don’t have a shared history. You don’t build a community.
Also, which are those apps you talk about? Because Jerboa doesn’t seem to be great for that. Switching between accounts is needed and quite annoying.
We are much less beholden to power tripping arseholes here than on a platform like Reddit
No. You’re way more beholden. The adminmod rules it all. What you see, who they federate, etc and it’s all defended by rabid users because “if you don’t like it leave and build your own instance*”. It’s not about community but instance owner absolute power.
Doesn’t quite work unless you’re absolutely in line with whichever narrative is happening. The echo chambers are bigger and the consequential toxicity upon dissent, much bigger.
You can make your own instance if you can’t find out that aligns with your values.

This and:
I am not sure how confident people are in a) switching from Reddit to Lemmy and b) hearing from it in the news or elsewhere, wanting to join the „fastest growing community“ and have no idea about Reddit so far.
It took me (coming from Reddit) about 2h to overview the alternatives, understand the fediverse structure and its jargon, decide between several instances, find and subscribe to similar communities (not only local ones) and finally write my first comment and post.
I seen a single post recommending Lenny.world and the wefwef iOS app and was up and running two minutes later. Zero clue about the fediverse structure but I can doom scroll and upvote so I’m happy.
I just want to say that you have invested the 2h not only for Lemmy. It took me minutes for this account because I was already familiar with the Fediverse. If you want to switch within the Fediverse in the future, I’m sure it will be easy for you•
But you’re here now, and that whole ‘understanding the fediverse’ part wasn’t strictly necessary to get started. Welcome!
And, all of the apps should be becoming more and more user friendly
Yo, welcome aboard!
Ty, you too ;-)
I skipped most of that, just because someone gave me the advice “just sign up for lemmy.world”. Might not be perfect for everyone but it is good enough in most cases.
2hr is what most people spend every night scrolling through reddit anyway.
That 2h on Reddit is super passive though for most people. It’s not the same as actively trying to absorb information.
Yeah imagine spending two hours on Reddit trying to set up an account lol
That’s leisure time or casual surfing, not setting something up.
Interesting! I was actually surprised how smooth it was. Installed the Connect app I found mentioned on reddit which looks similar to reddit apps. Registered, thoguth “lemmy.world” sounded nice (at this point I knew there are different instances, but that it does not matter too much). And then I started browsing.
Same here. I saw a post on Reddit saying join kbin or lemmy.world and then got on and saw a post mentioning apps being worked on, and a day or two later installed Liftoff, which is already from an established defunct lemmy app, and I was odd to the races.
I figure I will suss out the details of how to subscribe to other magazines and all the bells and whistles as I go. Glad to be here though.

Thank you for everyone’s efforts to make the shift from Reddit as smooth as possible. I am normally a lurker/casual Redditor and will likely continue to be so in the Fediverse, but I want to say how much I greatly appreciate how welcoming people have been. I really hope the transition goes as smoothly for original users, and I will do my best to be as minimally invasive as possible.
I’m finding myself commenting so much more here
Okay, so I’ve been here for a few days and I’m getting increasingly confused. I used reddit exclusively on mobile and was hoping to do the same thing for lemmy. But it seems like every app has major features missing. I’ve already tried 4 different apps and every one is missing a feature I’d consider critical. Keeping two accounts separate, adjusting settings for two different accounts, commenting, replying, posting, subscribing, and searching for specific instances are all pretty important, but every app is missing one or more of these features.
Is there a quickstart guide anywhere to get more familiar with this? Does anyone know of an app that can do all of this? I’ve already tried jerboa, summit, connect, and liftoff
Try WefWef.App, it’s pretty great, quite reminiscent of Apollo: https://wefwef.app
Does WefWef have a way to block users? This is the critical feature for me. Way too many hateful people spewing disinformation out there, not interested in seeing it.
Unfortunately this feature seem to be missing for now. The dev has an GitHub issue open on it though so it is on the roadmap.
Is this coming to the Play Store?
Don’t know, it’s actually a Progressive Web App (PWA) so you just visit in your browser, and can save it to your Home Screen, and from then on the web-app-via-browser works just like an app, seems just like a “regular” app. I’m on iOS but assume it can work similarly on Android.
Yeah works the same on Android
Same for Android, running it as a Chrome App.
Ah I gotcha
It’s website that acts like an app. Very mobile friendly while not requiring an install.
Unfortunately none of these apps are made by large teams, most actually being largely done by one person so yeah there’s features missing because they’ve never really had cause to sink a ton of time into their development (and a bunch of them are also just new). Only real solution is you just have to wait until they catch up. Also there’s the existing Reddit apps migrating over, but those are probably still weeks away. But I can tell you there’s a lot of active development going on, it’s just that, with the exception of Jerboa which is maintained by the full time Lemmy Devs (who also have to maintain Lemmy itself) and the Reddit 3PAs maybe, we’re not really doing this full time and have regular jobs to go to.
Thanks for the info. Hopefully Lemmy will survive these first weeks where the apps aren’t up to standard, and start to thrive like Reddit used to
I hope that my comment didn’t read as me complaining. I fully understand that this is different from reddit and I’m grateful to every developer working on lemmy in any capacity.
I just wanted to be sure I tried all of the popular options to find what works best before fully committing to one. Out of the four, liftoff seems to be the best. The main issue it got with it is that both accounts share the same settings. If I change a setting for one account, it changes the settings for the other as well.
I’m in the same boat. I’m using Lemmy on Jerboa, Wefwef, connect and Lemmy.nz itself. Still haven’t found a favourite and run into small issues with all.
But there are updates almost every day, sync is coming as well, so I just stick around. It’s much better than Reddit in all regards.
Speaking of Boost, it’s also moving to Lemmy
And sync!
So excited for this one. It was the one I used for the last year on reddit.
It’s based on Lemmur, an old Lemmy app that doesn’t work anymore.
I’m using it, it’s great. It’s definitely a lot nicer to use than Jerboa.
Thanks, have seen it mentioned elsewhere, will try!
After searching for suggestions by other users I tried Liftoff and it’s really decent.
Honestly there is almost no reason to not just use your web browser instead of an app.
I’m using mobile web but I’m having this issue (maybe intended) that I can never get just a stable list of things to look at, comments or posts, sorted in some sort of static way. When I say I want the hot posts on “all”, after a few seconds a post that was posted less than a minute ago will pop up on the top, pushing the content around. This comment section is sorted by hot and the first comment has -1 points so I doubt it’s working as intended. Plus comments get pushed in the top too, so my page is always scrolling and I cant keep my place.
Is this my instance? The site? Just how it works?
That’s a quirk of Lemmy 0.17.4, which lemmy.world is running. It’s fixed in 0.18, but that version removes the captcha which lemmy.world needs to filter out bots. 0.18.1 restores the captcha, and the admins are going to try to upgrade later today.
oh this is great info! glad I asked. thanks!
I had the same issue when I set up the Lemmy web app on my Android. I’m not sure there’s a way around it. I’m using Connect for Lemmy now though and it’s a good enough substitute.
Unfortunately, until the devs of Boost or Sync finish their apps for Lemmy, we may have to settle with incomplete apps with features that are missing. I suppose pre-registering for those apps might speed things along though as devs see more and more people wanting their app, so you might do that to bide your time.
Try liftoff, as far as I can tell the accounts are kept separate, with the option of having a combined feed (which tells you which instances the post your viewing is being served from) or a separate feed for each instance you’re on
A few of the developers of Reddit apps like Sync are now working on Lemmy versions. So I guess give it some time and hopefully your preferred app for Reddit will make it’s way over or have a clone with all the features you’re looking for.
I don’t mean to sound like a dick, but this isn’t reddit, it’s basically brand new. It hasn’t been around for nearly 20 years, and it has had mobile apps for weeks/months, not for over a decade. You gotta be patient, more features,more stability, more ease of use, all of that will come. Reddit didn’t even have subreddits for like the first two years or so.
If it helps, the Sync for Reddit dev, a fairly major player in the 3rd party app scene, is making Sync for Lemmy. They’re hoping to get something usable out in 6-8 weeks, and long term goal is to bring it up to and hopefully beyond S for R’s standards.
Cool well… give it a minute, you know? Some of the reddit apps have been in development for YEARS. So you’re not going to get to switch and immediately have every single thing you’re asking for in an app because the user base was non existent until basically the last two weeks.
deleted by creator
Jerboa wouldn’t connect to any instance for me, said server version (0.17.4) below min app version
Same here. I grabbed connect from play store and it’s been alright. I’m awaiting the launch of sync for lemmy. There are a ton of reddit apps moving to this so we should see some improvement over time.
The apps are all still very new. The pace of development has been, however, absolutely astonishing. There are almost as many apps for Lemmy as there are for reddit. I am left speechless at the speed of development, truly.
Having said that, some things are not a priority, as you are probably aware… Support for 2 accounts is one of them. may I ask why you need 2 accounts? I remind you that you don’t have to have accounts in every server in order to cross-interact. An account on lemm.ee can give you access to pretty much every lemmy instance. That is the power of federation.
Having two or more accounts is nice when servers still aren’t very stable and sometimes being hampered by bots or upgrade issues.
There are many reasons why you might want or need 2 accounts. Maybe you started on beehaw and want access to Lemmy.world content, or vice versa. Maybe you started on an instance and realised they don’t do image hosting but you’ve already built up some activity on that account and don’t want to completely give it up, so you create another one. Or maybe, just simply, you create an account on an instance only to find another you prefer the URL of but don’t want to give up previous activity. Many reasons!
Look everybody I’m filling the fediverse with content my content is the best never been content this good before
Proud of you
I am content with your content
