“You can generally just drop by and visit people without calling ahead of time and making some kind of arrangement,” he said. “That makes life more spontaneous.”

• Germans having panic attack *

Because I am Brazilian I have one account in a Brazilian instance. So when I am on the mood to read and participate on talks about Brasilian politics and news, I use that account.

But I live in Germany, so I also have an other account in a German instance when I want only to focus on German conversation, news, culture, memes, etc.

And a third account I have in a specific political orientation instance that is in English. So that account is when I want only talk about my political orientation with like-minded people.

But I am not religious about how I use my accounts. At the moment I am using the account that I created in the Brasilian instance.

Lemmy doesn't as many accounts and people participating as in Reddit. But the more you participate the more you motivate people to do as well, because it can create the start of conversation.

Also...

Choose "active" or "hot".

The point of creating more than one account, for me, is to have each account being about the subject of different instances. It feels more organised and sometimes I am on the mood to only read from one instance or other so it is convenient to have each account in different instances.

I have always understood utopia as a term to describe the idea of a society that is so idealistic that is sounds unlikely to be reached but not necessarily impossible.

The problem with the word Utopia is that most people use it for things that they don't understand and don't care to understand, assuming then that the idea they are rejecting is too unrealistic (too idealistic) to be possible to obtain.

But people fail to understand that the idealistic (or utopian ideas) are important to guides us towards a direction and discover things that we are capable to do that previous seemed impossible, inspired and dedicated by our ideals.
