confusion over user accounts on the tech community
HotCakeX the problem is that notifications, subscriptions, etc., only arrive in my personal email InBox and I never see them in my business InBox. When in fact I had a business-related question/problem for the community, I didn't get notified of any activity. This question is for the moderators or owners of Tech Community. In the 'good old days' of TechNet I'd just have two separate accounts for Technet and not this confusion.
gperkins and @geoperkins are both me, and I am myself, but these two profiles seem strangely both unlinked and linked at the same time.
I had to manually search for and find my own content (here) and subscribe to it in order to receive notifications and find it quickly in my own profile. How weird is that?

How do I consistently login to my account(s)?

HotCakeX Thanks
gperkins One of the accounts is a Microsoft account (ending @yahoo.com) and the other is a work email address,
Unfortunately we can not merge these two account types together. I would suggest picking one to use going forward and closing the other one.
Note: if you choose the work one and then leave your employer, you will need to start again from scratch as that account, all posts and any content relating to it technically would belong to your employer.

Note: If I have enough money to support my own organizational tenant due to some stupid reason, and one day decide to close it and shift to personal account, why, as an owner, I can't move all stuff from tenant to personal account?
