Sucks for us interested in it but It's completely understandable. Making an account on another instance and transferring your data takes no time at all, which is exactly what I did.
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.
