I suppose the answer could apply to any instance, but I’m mostly referring to this one.
Mind you, I don’t have two accounts, but I’m considering it: one for memes, the other for serious discussion.
But I’m unsure if that’s considered bad form by most people, so I thought I’d ask.
Thanks!
EDIT: Also, come to think of it, even if it were okay, would it even be possible to have to be logged into two separate accounts on the same instance at the same time with the same browser profile? :/
As others have said, it’s fine, as long as you’re not using it to ban evade or otherwise break instance or community rules.

Yep. But you need to use an alternative front end or a 3rd party app for that. If you try alx.lemmy.blahaj.zone for example, that’s our Alexandrite front end, and you can have two or more accounts signed in with Alexandrite
Another option, if you’re on Firefox, is to get the addon multi-account containers. That allows you to log in with multiple accounts since it keeps cookies separate
I normally say in the application text that it is a second account and for what purpose I’m going to use it. If it isn’t fine, then you’ll know it when the request is rejected.
Na. Multiple accounts is fine as long as you don’t vote manipulate.
It’s also a good idea if you run communities. One account as your daily driver and the other for administrative actions.
