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?

Only one, don't feel like having multiple accounts of something that I have to remember to use.
I only recently joined after hearing about lemmy. So far, I've been happy with sopuli.xyz alone.
Two, and a Kbin. The first instance was just for bots (friendly ones I made), then I signed up for this account to use as an alt as Kbin is a bit flaky. Kbin is my main account but I'm using this one quite a bit due to frequent 500 errors over there.
All of them
One, lemmy.ml but want to change to a smaller one, any recommendation?
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.
One
Four.
- Lemmy.ml, but not sure if they were accepting sign ups and wasnโt accepted.
- Beehaw, but found communities on Lemmy.world I couldnโt see.
- Lemmy.world, but had performance issues and realised I couldnโt see Beehaw ๐คฆโโ๏ธ.
- Finally landed on Lemm.ee and Iโm happy here.
Beehaw has chosen to defederate from lemmy.world so that makes sense.
Yeah I knew they had defederated, but didnโt fully think through joining Lemmy.world would have the same issues of not being able to see the entire Lemmyverse.
Only one so far but I might switch for another less laggy one.
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.
I'm on lemmy.world (which is being crushed by new users) and infosec.pub. Considering just spinning up my own server.
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?
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! ๐
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.
Two, I'm liking this instance more than lemmy.world
1
2 but the first was a quick anonymous test that i deleted after quickly getting used to lemmy and this one.
3, though Iโm including kbin.social too. Iโm 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.
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.
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
2 Lemmy instances and also kbin. Wasn't planned, but my first instance was so overrun that there were frequent server problems.
Sadly, I had to make an account in two instances.
Two, my main is beehaw but I use this account when they're down.
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
4, Lemmy.world beehaw.org sh.itjust.works and my own selfhosted ๐
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
Two. Got my start on lemmy.ml because it was run by the devs and i thought it would be the most reliable. Boy, was i wrong. Got rather annoyed with the instability and now I'm on sdf.org. Is there a way to sync profiles across instances? Would like to see my post history shared between my profiles.
Two. Started on sopuli.xyz then made one on lemmy.world.
I'm still not super certain how lemmy works, but there seems to be more activity on lemmy.world. Also, when I tried subscribing to communities on sopuli, most of them said "Pending" and I still wasn't subbed after a couple days. Lemmy.world seems easier.
Hey I'm still on sopuli only, did you notice a big difference from having the .world account?
