Mastodon has partial account migration (mostly a redirect), I don't think lemmy has that (yet?) although both are built on the activitypub protocol. Either way I hadn't used that account for long and didn't care enough to keep it.
Best way to have active accounts is to avoid lurking. I've found myself falling into the trap where I act like I'm on reddit or YouTube and I don't want to give them free user engagement. The exact opposite of Lemmy.
In my opinion, people don't mind hearing what you have to say. I wouldn't call an upvote content. So I think comments and posts, if you are feeling daring on any given day, make for a better experience and let's people be more social.
Basically, if everyone says something and interacts, this place will feel a lot more lively.
I had 2 with 250k+ back in the day. Sequential accounts, rather than them existing at the same time. I 'retired' a long ass time ago and mostly just lurked on communities that interested me. I came over during the migration because fuck spez.
I post a shit ton here; not because I care about internet points, but because Lemmy was pretty small and needed content when I joined. All of my stuff I post stems from my group chat or from memes I stumble across on non-reddit related sites.
I really like sharing memes and shitposts with my friends so I do it here too
I only ever started a second account on the old place (after 13+ years) because I got permanently banned from two subreddits that I wasn't quite ready to give up completely because they gave me no option to appeal.
Then these account will not be monthly active. A more fitting example is probably a porn account (don't accidentally post nudes on lemmy, people!), a troll account, a serious account, and the ten other accounts to upvote everything on the troll account.
I definitely had 3 because I forgot my login information for an instance and just made a new account because I don't care. Not seeing Hexbears on my current instance is a plus.

This is my second account (but I deleted the first because those instance admins are nuts)
Yeah, my instance admins are a bit nuts too.
Same, we have some deranged admins 🤣
As all admins should be
This thread here is just instances I’ve never even seen
Like almost cartoon where all the one off characters show up in a room together
Haha, I think the joke is that the three of us run solo instances.
That explains so much :/
Who TF runs lemmy.ee ?
Yea my instances admin is also a bit nuts.
Mine to. Hard to work with him sometimes.
Based
Those are rookie numbers
Isn't it possible to migrate accounts?

So yeah. Don't lurk. Lurking bad.
What if I just upvote or downvote posts and comments?

but what if I have nothing to say!
"yep"
Lemmy rn definitely is a great place to post content because most content is appreciated.
Appreciated ❤️
Most people on reddit have at least two...
Before I left I had like a dozen, and a few with more than 100K karma.
I was a karma whore through and through, but I'm past that now 😤
It's time to settle down and start a family.
Guile, is that you?

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Why though? With Lemmy I got a couple of them to stay online whenever instances have problems. But with R? Outside of porn accounts ofc.

I just post everything on my nudes account, I don't care haha
Goes to check user account... Welp, that was not what I was looking for.
Maybe it'll...grow on you 😉
Goes to check user account... Welp, that's actually pretty much what I was looking for.
Also, damn.
Glad I can help! 😘
7 but most arent active
I have 11 accounts apparently (had to check pw manager!), though I mostly use just one
Is this wrong? I thought that is the way it worked... pick an instance, it has a brief issue or quirk, so you make an account on another instance.
Then these account will not be monthly active. A more fitting example is probably a porn account (don't accidentally post nudes on lemmy, people!), a troll account, a serious account, and the ten other accounts to upvote everything on the troll account.
That's the joke chief.
3 inactive 1 active, sorry guys will do better

only 5? When I'm bored at my work (all time) I start random discussions with my other accounts in random posts just for fun
