Many kids created several user profiles. Most of the times when they "level up" and for example "learn functions" (custom blocks), instead of create new projects with the learning old ones they create a new user profile so I would at least divide 103 million users by two.
- Retr0id 4y agoAnecdotally, I have at least 3 GitHub profiles
- datkam 4y agoI have many profiles on any platform that I use a lot (at least 15 on HN and 15 on reddit).
- freedomben 4y agoGenuine question: why? I only have one, and I wonder if I'm missing something.
- Tade0 4y agoAnecdata: my sister had a additional Facebook account for gaming on this social media platform and adding strangers as friends for related bonuses without running the risk of inviting stalkers. EDIT: additional, not "duplicate", which would imply any of the personal data was similar - it was of course fictional.
- datkam 4y agoI do it in an effort to preserve privacy...
- Wowfunhappy 4y agoNote that Scratch does not require users to verify their email addresses (although some functionality is restricted), so the barrier to entry is somewhat lower. Even for confirmed email addresses, Scratch is super lax in terms of what they'll accept. My company (a childrens' coding enrichment program) probably has upwards of a thousand Scratch accounts attached to a single gmail via "+" aliases, and Scratch doesn't care at all.
