Me, who chose a big default instance before knowing anything about Lemmy: guess I will be a civilian casualty

Making a new account elsewhere costs nothing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

It costs all my account history, not knowing people responded to my old comments, losing or having to migrate all my saved posts/comments, etc.

When I first joined there was talk of Lemmy supporting account migration between instances do I was waiting for that, but that has petered out I think.

As someone who has changed accounts you don't really lose that much. Karmas not a concept here, so that's the big one.

Besides that, most apps let you log into multiple accounts so you can still check all of the legacy interactions if you need to.

The main pain was subscribing to all the communities again.

EDIT: when I first made accounts, .ml was recommended, and I tried signing up cuz I thought, "I work with machine learning, sure!"

Oh, those were brighter days.

There are scripts now that can move your subscription list

It's only been a year. You'll be fine.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Yeah, I genuinely don't know what's a good instance to move to though. Even yours is controversial for being too big.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

I actually prefer sh.itjust.works, but got used to using Alexandrite, so I'm alternating.

I have a backup account on lemm.ee, though I don't use that unless I want to make a split personality joke.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

I like lemm.ee, though it's also getting kinda large

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago

lemme.ee and lemmy.sdf.org seem good to me

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Fuck me, right?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Change? Not difficult.

"Civilian casualty"?

I'm sorry, but I don't understand your reference and/or sarcasm.

Based on your reply, should the takeaway be that there is no way to block entire instances?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

There is no reference, I'm just saying it sucks I get blocked due to people blocking lemmy.ml, even though I have nothing to do with any political stuff there.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Got it.

Sorry, just trying to curate my feed; nothing against you specifically.
