One on my self-hosted Lemmy, one on my self-hosted Mastodon and one on a different Lemmy instance for stuff where I want to be a bit more anonymous than with a nickname that I use on so many platforms.

Maybe 4? I was on kbin, then signed up on two mbin instances when Ernest had to leave. And I have one account on a random instance because I needed to PM someone over there and it was the only way to do so.

Different interests require different accounts on different services. Not everything is served by lemmy e.g music, video, and blogs. Lemmy can’t do it all --> different accounts.

i have one account per distinct service i use, lemmy - mastodon - pixelfed. Not sure why you’d need so many accounts? to protect your highly unique nickname?

I mainly use three Lemmy accounts. Sections content/themes.

I signed up for… maybe 8 Lemmy, maybe 12 Fediverse things?

Just the one i that host myself

My main Lemmy account on jlai.lu where I got all my subs, another one on another instance I only use to admin a community over there (there is less bugs when using a local account over a remote one), and one Mastodon account that I almost never use—it’s just, I don’t know, maybe it’s an age thing (50+) but I’m not that interested in receiving constant flow of short messages, even less so when said messages are so often emotional and/or polemical (as a general rule, I try to stay away from anger and resentment).

I have a few more accounts on various platforms I tried here and there and decided to not use. So, I would say those don’t count.

You’re not alone. It happens! I’m around the 10 mark I think.

Three here.
