I have a couple accounts on different instances. Is there a way to easily switch between accounts within a single interface yet?

    Most browsers have tab support. You can have a different instance on each tab, and switch between them all you want.

        Just out of interest - what are you trying to do with multiple accounts?

        You probably know already, but you only need one account to participate in multiple instances (as long as they haven’t blocked federation)

          Thanks. I do know that.

          1. If/when defederation happens, I want to have a solution. I don’t want to depend on a single instance to handle it how I want.

          2. Throwaway accounts were a thing on Reddit for a reason. For the same reason, I’d like to have that option too.

            Alright just wanted to make sure in case you don’t know ;)

            I have accounts on different instances as well for the same reasons as you.

          How does this apply to the defederation of BeeHaw towards lemmy.world? I am on lemmy.world and can still view BeeHaw content. So I’m confused. If I go to !technology@beehaw.org, I can still post and comment.

          edit: so clearly my confusion stems from my inability to understand the difference between !technology@beehaw.org and !technology on beehaw.org. They have the same posts and comments but !technology does not allow me to comment or post.
