I would rather just use the one account and interact with people who can roll with the blows. I've tried maintaining a #mastodon account, npub13wz50lekrwgehghawnprmj4ualsj78v8gpxwhm3zm35n02wxxrxsez7ncq (npub13wz…7ncq) and found that it was far too sanitized for my liking. I ended up getting suppressed on the instance I had registered on for no other reason than having opinions that didn't jive with the liberal majority that use Mastodon.
Just like with real life, you need to be able to stand up for yourself and don't let people walk all over you. When you make it clear that poasties and other degenerates won't get a rise out of you, they tend to leave you to your own devices. Not once have I been harassed on the Fediverse, and that is because I curate my own experience through interacting mostly with acquaintances and their mutuals.
The toxic elements of the '*Dark Fedi*' do exist, but I don't interact with poasties enough for it to be a nuisance for me. That is why I am of the opinion that people are too quick to use something which should've been used as an absolute last resort and only when all other avenues have explored.
