I wonder how many of these are unique? I'm sure that many, like myself, have created accounts on more than 1 instance.

Everybody needs at least two. One for regular interaction, and another for porn. I mean for science.

Culture and science.

I feel called out.

To be counted as active, you have to have commented or at least liked a post/comment, IIRC. So if you're hopping around from one login to another within 24 hours and actively engaging on them then yes, you'd be counted more than once in these stats. If you're just lurking, no.

Yep, due to the uncertainty on the durability of instances, I have created my main user on a small instance to help the distribution but also backups on bigger ones.

I'm guessing most of the Beehaws at least have duplicates since they cut themselves off.

As a protective measure when lemmy.world got exploited.

Perhaps an unpopular opinion, but that's looking to have been a prudent option if they wanted to avoid bad actors at all costs.
