I did try to search for the answer before posting, but I’m not the best at that stuff. Sorry if there’s already an answer for this somewhere.

I like to have separate accounts for stuff. I like to have one where I can discuss movies, and then another one where I can talk about video games, music, and basically all my other interests. It feels better to compartmentalize them this way. I didn’t want to go ahead with the idea without checking first.

    Depends on what “on here” is. The Fediverse in general? Yes, absolutely. Use as many accounts as you want for whatever reason. On Lemmy? Also yes. Your use case is absolutely valid.

    I don’t know any instance that disallows multiple accounts for the same user. Just don’t create a bunch of sock puppet accounts …

      I’m new to this. I’m still learning what all this means, but I figured if I have to put a little more effort to participate on this, then it’s probably safer. I don’t know exactly what “decentralized” means, but the little I know makes it seem like it’s built for the long run, or at least with user safety in mind.

      It looks a little tedious, but it seems I can access other instances (I guess they’d be like Discord servers) even if I didn’t sign up with them.
