Why do the instances keep going down? It makes me think that this is not a reliable social network, but the alternatives are not as good.

    I choose not to be. I like to have a clear breadcrumb trail for myself and not confuse people.

      I get that, I’ve been “SoNick” or some variation of it for a few decades now. However, a friend of mine uses different - but thematically similar - usernames for different services, when I asked her about it she explained that as a girl on the internet she has attracted more than a few stalkers; changing up the username makes it harder for them to find her on different services.
