one. I don't have a lot of time to mess around. If I have to move I will likely have two for a bit. I have not deleted my reddit as I decided to run the delete on a semi regular basis if that counts but I don't actually use it.
I had just one on Lemmy World but after a technical hiccup due to the sheer volume of users in a short period of time, I made a few accounts on other instances, including this one which has become my primary.
I may or may not have around 100 accounts, most have never been active however, i basically signed up everywhere because i wanted to see everything, i think i settled for ani.social now.
I have multiple accounts on Mastodon, kbin, Lemmy, Misskey and Pixelfed. I originally signed up to different communities to get a feel for what worked for me. I'm glad I did because one was sold (mastodon.cloud) to a shady spam company, and my favorite Mastodon instance that I settled on had an admin hissyfit and shut down because he didn't own any big boy pants. And another instance suddenly became a csam farm and I deleted that crap real fast.
I still visit a few local communities to see how they have developed, some better than others. Some are just people moaning about everything they can post about, just like twitter is. So annoying.
I personally find that I have more fun on kbin and I use Mastodon for news and keeping up with hashtag follows. I really hope in the future that kbin gets more tools like Mastodon with following hashtags, bookmarks and a filtering system like they do. It's really nice to be able to mute and block other people easily.
I like to split my non-nsfw and sfw accounts, so I have two accounts each on Twitter, Bluesky, Lemmy and Mastodon.
For Lemmy I had accounts on Beehaw and Sh.itjust.works before they fell out and I don’t think either handled it well.
For Mastodon, I originally made an account on Mastodon.scot, but switched to furry.engineer because apparently meow.social blocks mastdon.scot for an unknown reason. I then reactivated it later when Mastodon.art decided to go on its crusade against trans people and furries, so now I kinda use both.
When I created the account here, I decided to say “screw it” and use my one account for everything. I had the split accounts on reddit, still have both names, but my “clean” account is only used when yiffit is taking a break. I also don’t need that one anymore as I just created a backup on pawb.social.
Overall there doesn’t seem to be a lot of activity outside of the really big communities. As for porn, other than the larger communities on lemmynsfw, not a whole lot of activity.
Hopefully your most recent has some staying power. Small instances seem to have less, but better activity, but they also only have 1 admin who might just decide to quit one day.
Twenty-five Lemmy instance accounts, plus two Kbin/Mbin instance accounts, three Mastodon instance accounts, one Sharkey instance account, and one Firefish instance account.
Just this one. I don’t want to juggle more passwords than are really necessary, and I’m not too worried at the idea of others scrolling down my profile and seeing that I’m a furry, a TF fan, and sometimes an outwardly sexual person when the situation allows it.
