Huh, I would never have guessed that reasoning. Until now, I had just assumed all of these accounts were attempts from a spammer to get around bans or something.
It isn’t what you intended, but it comes off as super fishy. This is just one person’s opinion, but I had subconsciously developed a very negative view of this cm0002 army, and I wouldn’t be surprised if others have too.
If you’re going to continue to use a huge number of accounts, I would suggest at the very least adding an explanation on each profile so suspicious people like me can understand what we’re looking at and who we’re interacting with. A single comment like this on just one of dozens of accounts will be seen by very few.
Your goal of promoting smaller instances is admirable, but you may want to look at other ways of doing so. Ideally, it would be nice to just see a single account develop a good reputation and relationships within the Lemmyverse, but do what you feel you need to do.
I don’t see it on Mlem either
