Somewhere in your profile settings there's an export. It won't export your posts, just which communities you follow and who you've blocked, etc. Import those into your new account on the new instance.
What? I had no idea! I manually migrated my subscriptions over when I switched!
It was hard for me, so I vote everyone must manually do it, for character building or some such bullshit.
Ah the "We didn't build a better world for our children for the benefit of the goddamn kids" attitude. My country is currently dying of that.
Perfect idea!
Let’s improve the character building by requiring people to first setup their own Lemmy instance before they can join a larger one.
That surely will improve the amount of users here 😇
Banger instance btw
Thank you! Had the domain for a while, and now found the perfect use case for it :D
In your bio on old profile set a link to your new profile, that's the only way currently. Then set up a script that migrates your subscription list to the new account.
Make the account
Export your subscriptions/saved/other settings in the lemmy settings. Then import that on the new account.
I'm curious why you'd like to move away from .world? I'm mostly lazy, but I also have not found another instance that even seems worth the effort.
Main reason is that imo, lemmy.world is already quite big, and smaller communities need more support/users Aside from that, It would also say more about me!
