I love Lemmy, but as others have already said, the vast majority of these signups are likely bots. Pretty spooky.

Bots and multi-accounts. I had one reddit account with no alts. Here I have like 6 accounts because of all the federated / non federated bs.

Im a newbie, why do you have so many accounts? Isn't it bothersome to switch between them for whatever you are using them for?

[–] Master@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

To each their own I guess. It's not bothersome for me to switch accounts as I normally browse each lemmy locally to make sure I'm seeing as many of the comments as possible. I never really subscribed to the "subscribe/follow" feature of reddit. I liked my front page and all my niche communities separate so when I want to read about xxx I go to xxx subreddit and read all the top posts then move to my next subreddit. To many things fall through the cracks of the front page IMO. But to each their own, again. There is no reason to run lemmy like I do vs one account if it is working for you as is.
