Is there a way to sign into multiple Fediverse instances using the same account? Or is it possible to merge account across instances?

No and no as far as I know. But why would you want multiple accounts? Just use one account and subscribe to all the communities that are on different instances. You can even create + comment on posts with your account even if you aren’t part of the instance.
The only real thing that you will miss out on is if you want to create a community on a different instance. I think you can only create communities on your local instance (Unless you sign up for an instance that restricts that feature).
As to why, maybe in case an instance goes down.
I have 3 accounts, 1 for programming (lemmy.ml), 1 for music (lemmy.studio) and one for ‘rest’ (guess ;) ) I’m looking in self hosting so I can use an account in my domain, but not sure yet. Maybe I’ll just be lazy and concentrate everything in this account.
