I miss multireddits, a workaround I found is to create accounts on different instances and subscribe to different communities with each account ie
News trabic@lemmy.world
Memes and other bullshit trabic@lemmy.one
“Math” trabic@lemmynsfw.com
Then just login to which ever one I’m looking to browse. I don’t think this will screw with the fabric of the fediverse, is there any reason I shouldn’t?
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.
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.
Why not just have one account and access communities across instances with federation?
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.
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?
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 doesn’t really understand lemmy yet? I’d 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!
