Today I was made aware that beehaw.org blocked my entire instance. I would be ok if I simply could not write a post/comment in beehaw, that would be reasonable.
Unfortunately the beehaw users can no longer see my posts, which is a problem when I’m trying to be active and promote other communities on other non-blocked instances. What a mess.
I’d like to know if it’s possible to migrate my account to another instance without losing my post history or at the very least the communities I’m subscribed to. My account is only 6 days old so it’s not much a problem today, but this can be a recurring problem and if no migration path is available I might have to consider self-hosting or leaving lemmy altogether.
Thanks in advance.
In all honesty, its better to a have a few accounts anyway. Imagine your main instance goes down for a period of time or permanently. Your account will go down with that ship. Having a few affiliated accounts across the fediverse will help mitigate user downtime. I’ve got accounts at Beehaw, lemmy.world, and here at Kbin.
