Does it even make a difference? Would much appreciate some suggestions.

This has really made me lose faith in a defederated system like this.

@Anyone: please let me know if I'm wrong about these and if there's a solution, but as far as I can see:

  • I can't export my account (most importantly all the posts and comments I've saved).
  • It's difficult to find where a server is based.
  • Some instances seem to be solo hobby projects. I don't want to pick another instance that is at risk of being killed.

The lack of account mobility is really a huge problem with the fediverse, you lose all your stuff if you move to another instance.
