No, if you do that the police will federate to your house and arrest you

I knew it! You'll never take me alive, c/opper.
Please let this become my first Lemmy inside joke.
I can't see any reason why you wouldn't do that
Honestly sounds like a great productivity tool
"Alright it's time for the meme account"
30 minutes later
*Alright time to get stuff done, let's switch to the production account that's subbed to all the communities with tutorials for the program I'm about to work in."
Is there any easy way of going about this for someone who doesnβt really understand lemmy yet? Iβd love an entertainment one and a seperate music production account
Basically you'd just need to go to the instances list and start picking instances to make accounts on.
And for each account search for communities from them and start subbing.
Some of them are easy to get into, others are a bit picky, some are really busy, and some not so much.
I'd recommend staying away from Lemmygrad though unless you want to be around people who simp for Russia and other authoritarian regimes.
Stick with the chill ones and you'll have a far nicer time on Lemmy, plus from the chill ones it's easier to block the shit ones.
Very useful, thank you!
Just create multiple accounts. Sub the communities in each that you want to. Easy as that.
I feel like you're using multiple accounts in a rather creative way, but at the end of the day it isn't too different from the "normal account, porn account" system that people already use.
So it's likely fine?
Why not just have one account and access communities across instances with federation?
Because sometimes I prefer to not have my feed full of LoTR memes, cats, boobs, no poop challenges etc. And some times I don't want the news breaking up my cats, boobs, no poop challenges etc. and I haven't found a better way to do that in Lemmy.
How's the no poop challenge community in the Fediverse? I find that mildly amusing.
Anyway, I find your strategy for creating multi-Lemmies to be creative, effective, and harmless.
I guess you missed the "I need to not poop for 3 days" flood that was overwhelmed by the "billionaires become chum" avalanche.
Oh right, that...
There is no problem doing that. It has no negative impact over fediverse, and the only down side is too manage multiple accounts. If you are ok with that, go ahead.
I don't think there's anything wrong in doing that, if you wanna keep things separated and there are currently no tools to do that with only one account then i think there's no reason to not go with the multi-accounting approach if you want too, as long as it isn't a spam level thing
Plus, some clients like liftoff even make that easier by supporting being logged on multiple accounts simultaneously and being able to easily shift between them
Jerboa and Connect do that with account switching too.
Lately I've been leaving different accounts in different apps to reduce confusion. Having the same user name on the different instances is a bit confusing with the account switcher.
I see, yeah that makes sense
I had the same idea after i spent a bunch of time subbing a tons of communities on one account and then realizing actually i want to just look at regional news and politics sometimes and keep all the aww and meme type stuff separate.
This just sounds like too much work to me. I mean to each their own, so rock in if thatβs what works for you. I just know Iβd end up forgetting which account I was subbed into, and within the course of 1-2 months my communities would be a mashed up mess.
I know it is not the main topic of discussion but, there is a discussion on Github about multi communities, if you have a GitHub account please upvote it, or you could add a bounty to it.
Of course! At least that's how I've seen it with the uptick recently. Curious why you'd think it'd be an issue?
