    You could probably find some ways to get a few of em but i don’t know.
    You shouldn’t really need more than one or two accounts tho. Talking from kbin :)

      What would be the use case for having two accounts?

        I’ve heard SOME people are using a separate account for consuming highly unchristian forms of media, DEFINITELY not me though

        One possibility is an instance shutting down. Many instance admins are good about giving lots of notice, but sometimes that doesn’t happen.

        In fact there has been at least one instance on the fediverse which the admin disappeared from the internet, and their instance just slowly degenerated until it stopped working. Were they hit bt a bus? Who knows.

          Big instances might want to have some contingency plans in place. This sounds like something we should all be aware of

        Using different accounts to route around and still access content at instances that defederated from your original account’s instance.

          You can still view content from instances that defederated from your instance as long as your instance didn’t block them.

        If say, someone in Beehaw wanted to interact with Lemmy.World, they’d have to make an account on Lemmy.World or some other instance that hasn’t defederated
