My strategy has been to make multiple accounts on different instances, spread myself across different communities and not to put all my eggs into one basket or get attached to any one community.
I like thought provoking philosophical or controversial topics. critical thinking, robust debate, and testing the strengths of arguments and ideas. I love to uncover weaknesses, biases, blind spots or flaws in existing beliefs or arguments, both in myself and others to gain a better understanding of ourselves. I aim for empathy, constructive commentary and respect for other people’s opinions, as an alternative to attacks. Here for self-reflection and - also - cat memes.

Same. The beauty of the internet is the freedom of movement. You can have one account or many accounts across the internet, and it doesn’t matter. You can go where you’re treated best without tolerating the bullshit of a platform or instance if it does not suit you. Speaking of news, RSS feeds have been my greatest ally in sourcing decentralized information that I choose.
I have multiple accounts on different instances with different usernames. I wouldn’t blink an eye if I lost my post and comment history as I keep a local copy of posts and comments I like and move on. Would love to see a transfer option, but there is something special about packing up and starting over again where no one knows my name or has some preconceived notion about who I am as a person because I wrote an opinion they did not like.
