Transferring the communities you subscribed or blocked to your new account. I used lasim, just downloaded the info from my old account and uploaded it to my new one. Only took a few seconds to do.
I thought about using this but bro, I’m not installing a desktop piece of software for this nonsense.
That’s my problem. When people say “just switch instances, it’s why the fediverse exists” did they ever stop to think that it’s a pain in the ass? Or that there’s going to be significantly fewer communities and users on other instances?
I am not finding my same communities outside of lemmy world due to the overall lower usage of lemmy. So we’re faced with switching instances to “fight the good cause” and have no content, or stay at Lemmy World.
Not everyone here is a ln Uber tech nerd that has all the time in the day to fuck around with this stupid site.
If you join an instance that isn’t defederated with lemmy.world, you should have access to all of the same communities and comments that you’d see there. That’s kind of the entire idea.
I have accounts on multiple instances, but what does transferring your data entail when you say that?
