And now it looks like a gas station bathroom!

Nah. As long as your instance is federating with all the ones that you want to interact with, there isn't much of a reason to have multiple accounts. However, if you want to see and interact with content that your main instance has blocked, you might then make another account.

Sync is closed source, while most of the other apps are open source. So you can't see or modify the code of Sync.

Fish flavored fries? Yuck! No thanks!

The only exception is if one of the two servers has chosen not to federate with the other. In that case, you would want one on each account. However, that's pretty rare as of right now.

I'll keep using Firefox until I'm dead or it's dead!

Have you considered installing a custom ROM? That's what I do especially if the phone is still totally functional. It looks like Lineage supports the 4A https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/sunfish/

But isn't Jupiter all gas?

Even though Lemmy and Kbin use two completely different software platforms, they are both based on a technology called ActivityPub. This allows different servers (instances) to talk to each other using a process known as Federation.

At the moment, Kbin is federating (meaning talking to other servers, including Lemmy), so you can view and interact with Kbin magazines from Lemmy. I am not sure how it works on Kbin, but for us Lemmy users, we copy paste the Kbin link into our search bar.

So no, you don't really need to make separate accounts unless the instance (website) has blocked yours or vice versa.

It's different for us Lemmy users. Too unblock a community, you have to go to the community itself and click unblock. Edit: It's also in settings under blocked on the website

 

I've noticed that communities from sopuli.xyz aren't showing up in the search. Is Pawb.Social having issues federating with that instance? Or is it just that the instance might be overloaded?

Rocky Mountain Oysters! I cannot recommend it. Edit: Oh, and peanut butter pickle sandwiches (better than I expected)
