Now that smaller instances are disappearing, which instances do you think will stand the test of time? (lemmy.ca)

I had an account on lemmy.one and now the instance has been down for a day or two so I made this new account. I also heard other small instances are dead or disappeared.

So which ones do you think will actually stick around for a long time?

ALSO, does anyone know how to get my subscriptions from lemmy.one and import it here? TIA!

Can you upload your comment history to a new instance? Does that question even make sense? I’m not sure what backing up means, I guess. Just an archive?

    There are tools that can backup and migrate communities, blocks and settings like lasim for a user. So you can migrate between instances.

    As far as I know, there aren't any tools that can migrate comment history and I think anything that could do that, would need to be backed into lemmy itself(Which it isn't currently).
