I feel kinda dumb.. I truly did not get the whole fediverse thing and panicked trying to guess where most of us refugees would go, I made an account on mastadon, kbin.social, karab.in, lemmy.world and maybe a few more I now cannot recall, all same username as my Reddit account.. I assume now that was overkill? I hope there is a way I can merge them all together at some point.. and Oddly enough, this was my last instance(? That's what lemmy.world is right?) that feels less confusing than all the previous ones I tried..
Growing pains but in time I think this whole fediverse thing will grow on me!
Having multiple accounts isn't necessarily redundant. When I joined Mastodon I picked a friendly instance at random, the owner is very strict about what will be visible in their instance's federated feed so a lot of instances are banned. Personally I'm fine with their choices since I don't want to see hate speech in my feed, but there could be scenarios where you disagree with your preferred instance's owner on what you want to see.
