I wonder how many of these are unique? I'm sure that many, like myself, have created accounts on more than 1 instance.
I'm guessing most of the Beehaws at least have duplicates since they cut themselves off.
Why did they do that?
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.
