    I wouldn’t be surprised if the real number of users was half, or even a third of that.

    I have four accounts.

      Likewise, I have 4 across the fediverse. Several reasons:

      • the splitting of the fediverse into fiefdoms means there’s simply no way to interact with one part without having an account within the fiefdom.
      • unlike a monolithic platform, the instance your account is attached to has meaning. Doesn’t look proper to do wholesome interactions with a nsfw instance name attached to your username 😜
      • stability (or lack thereof). We all know what happened with vlemmy and lemmy.world…
      • interface. If you want the optimum masto experience you have to have a masto account.
