Hi there,
I am wiring up 6 NC limit switches to my TinyG board. I understand they need to be wired to the applicable max/min terminal and a ground. My question is simply- do I wire multiple switches to each ground terminal, given there are 6 switches and only 3 GND terminals on the board?
Thanks!

Simple answer - yes.

Suggestion - connect all switch GNDs together, consolidate into one lead to a Gnd screw terminal
Also - connect all switch cable shields together, consolidate into one lead to another Gnd screw terminal.
