Then they’re the same as the Reddit users who refuse to move. It’s not hard to move to a different Lemmy/PieFed instance, that’s our strength. You can export your account data and import it to your new instance so your subscriptions transfer.
People don’t want to switch.

But your upvotes and comment history don’t.

Sure but IDK that just doesn’t seem important. That’s the same issue we had switching from Reddit to Lemmy. My Reddit posts aren’t gone and neither are my programming.dev posts, I’m here on retrolemmy now and it’s fine. If I need to edit an old post then I’ll open programming.dev but that doesn’t bother me.

I’m fine leaving my old account behind.
Then we have different viewpoints. I’m very much NOT ok with leaving my old account behind.
If AI hadn’t banned me on reddit, I’d be much happier over there. I’d have my old account, and all my post history going back 10 years. Which by this point would be more like 12 or 13 years.
It’s not important to you, but it’s important to me. Just because youhave an opinion doesn’t make it “the right way”. Everyone can have different opinions, and thats ok.
Literally 3 months after I got here, and started figuring out how the fediverse worked, I was calling for changes. Quite frankly, what I thought the fediverse was is a lot cooler than what it actually is.
I can post a picture here from pixelfed, but it’s no different than posting a picture from imgur.
So the account history is all I have to look back at.

Notice how ‘here’ is no longer reddit

Reddit refused access to API, and people left reddit.
Lemmy.world is refusing access to the pirate instances.
By your logic, people should leave Lemmy.
