There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.

I have 2 alts on other instances because reports don't federate yet, how do I keep this all organised?

I only have 3 (plus an account I only use for development/testing), but I use a client that allows multiple profiles on different instances.

Since reports still don't federate across instances, I switch to my two alts every so often to check for reports and then switch back to my main.

The hosted instances of Tesseract and Photon allow multiple profiles on different instances, though most instances that deploy those themselves opt to lock them to their instance (though you can still have multiple profiles, just not on different instances). You can also host them yourself and run them 'unlocked'.

I don't like app apps and prefer web apps in most cases, so I'm not sure which have similar multi-profile features, but I'm sure at least some do. Check out https://lemmyapps.com/ to sort by feature/platform.
