I have registered an account on SDF’s Lemmy server. Can I use this account to log in to other servers, or do I need a separate account for each server?

    I suppose my main concern is what happens if a server decides to close down? Would my account be lost?

      From what I can tell, yes. That’s why it’s recommended that you create your account on a server that has not too little and not too many users. Too little and the admin could shut it down due to inactivity, too many and the server might not be able to handle all the traffic.

      There’s a Github page that has a list of servers and some of their stats for people wondering where to register their account: github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmt-instances
