Is it still recommended to have two separate accounts
Now that I'm doing a total cleanup I was wondering if I should just install everything in the same account or still use two? Sometimes my permissions get messed up between my account and I end up not being able to use some thing on one side or the others.

I've always had issues trying to use different accounts. It never seems to work like it is designed to do. I have another account setup for testing and emergencies in case something gets corrupted, but things generally seem to work better with less hassle when I just use one main account.
