How many accounts do you have, and how do you manage them?
And how many of those accounts are for NSFW content?
For the sake of anonymity, people without separate accounts can pretend to be sock-puppets of those answering.

Same, literally just finished subscribing to 50+ communities the day before it went down :'(
One on lemmy.world (June 15th), this account I've made on lemmy.fmhy.ml (July 3rd), and one on lemmynsfw (also July 3rd). My lemmy.fmhy.ml account is my main now, I only login on lemmy.world if I want a more up-to-date feed and content, though the lemmyverse has already gotten bigger and has more content nowadays so that's no longer necessary.
You mean Fediverse accounts? I have one for Lemmy and one for Mastodon. Boring? Yeah, I know.
One on lemmy.world and one on kbin.social, because I wanted to try out both. I only use Lemmy, but I'll keep kbin as a backup in case there's any shenanigans with Lemmy in the future. And I still have my old Reddit account cause I can't bring myself to delete it, but that profile just points people to my Lemmy account.
I have four due to instance shopping, but there's only one I use all the time and one I use as an alternate. Would be nice to be able to synchronize them.
NSFW I don't care about, it's enabled. I only browse stuff by subscription where that stuff rarely comes up. Can't imagine the garbage I'd have to sift through setting my front page to "All".
I have a handful of redundant accounts because instances keep fucking up or disappearing completely.
Just two, one I first signed up with and decided was a mistake, and then the one I currently use. I'll probably make a third for nsfw eventually but that's low on the list while I'm still settling in
I've got 2, largely out of curiosity for what defederation meant as far as user perspective.
When exporting comes online I'll likely make an effort to spin up an instance if it's still feasible... So there will be a 3rd cake?On the positive side I don't think you're going to find many people wanting to sock puppet mild takes and noise rock.
I have 3.
First was Lemmy.World, because RIF suggested it with its final update message.
Second was Yiffit because I need my furry femboy stuff and didn't find it on Lemmy.World and didn't know I could use the same account for it yet.
3rd was sh.itjust.works as a backup for when the other 2 are down/slow.
On Reddit I just had 2. My main one, and the one I used to get around a really stupid and hypocritical ban on /r/gaming. Perma banned for mentioning what PS .bin file version was needed for NA games on an emulator; not linked, didn't even tell them where to get it, just gave them a version number. In a thread about how to get PCSX to work. 🤦♂️
Just the one. I'd just constantly forget to switch if I had more than one, not worth the hassle.
Coincidentally, I just now opened a second account after opening the first a week ago. I decided I wanted a different @username. I don’t know why I used my Reddit username the first time. I’ll delete that one soon — I only made two post comments with it.
I do have a Mastodon, too.
Currently three, non used for porn just different instances.
Testing out various apps on iOS.
1 main account, 1 alt account. This is a use case where I fully appreciate the separation caused by federation; my alt account is on a separate instance and therefore is completely, wholly separate from my main.
On Reddit I had my regular one and an alt for commenting things that I wouldn't want tied back to me IRL. So far here is just this one. If I ever post much more identifying info on this one, I might make an alt.
Just this one, I don't see a need to have any alts right now. I might later on for NSFW if I want to subscribe and vote, but there's basically no NSFW lemmys worth using yet so...
You mean first? Last I checked all there is is furry stuff and lemmynsfw had a cringy obsession with celebrities, like dozens of communities for every celebrity imaginable.
Upon review it appears it's a bit more on the normal side and pornlemmy seems to be a new, saner thing.
Still not a whole lot of softcore though.
I made 4 or 5 accounts on different instances. I settled on programming.dev, and only use this account.
Might be interesting to create an NSFW account too.
2, this one and my obligatory one over at sdf.org cuz I am over there doing stuff all the time. I had two alts over in Reddit for specific topics but currently I don't see those topics over here so no alts currently.
