    I can’t imagine being that unlucky with your instances, maybe you’re running into bugs or the less intuitive parts of Lemmy (like how links to posts and communities don’t work how you’d expect them to)

      It was mostly bugs/stability issues for me.

      I created a lemmy account, but I’ve never actually been able to log into it. I even tried creating another account on lemmy, no dice.

      Created a kbin account, but then found out that they were defederated temporarily due to the influx, and they had some really annoying cloudflare stuff on

      Created a fedia account, but posts from other instances were delayed by like 6-8 hours, and fedia itself was (and still is) a relatively small instance.

      Kbin has since refederated so it’s working the best for me.

      Couldn’t figure out a good way to get mastadon to mesh with the ui of other instances so I created a mastadon account. Then I realized I’d gone down a rabbit hole of porn so my mastadon feed was taken over by nsfw stuff, so I made a new non-horny mastadon account.

      That’s seven. If beehaw ever defederates from kbin, I might make an eighth so I can participate there (unless fedia starts becoming better at updating).

      3 of them were defederated by beehaw but I also have a beehaw account and then 2 others just in case… But I am sure I’m not the only one like this. So the total lemmy numbers are probably inflated… not that reddit numbers aren’t also inflated.
