Comment on A Quick Refresher on The Fediverse Meta, Blocklists, and Everything Up to Now

  There's no way to transfer accounts afaik, and just hopping instances doesn't solve the web of blocked / blacklisted domains anyway.
  As for hosting it yourself, that's apparently really hard and even big communities are struggling with it. Lemmy/kbin also have issues with all the content you interact with being also downloaded to your instance which sounds like a legal and curation nightmare...

    On lemmy for now there is not. But there is on Mastodon and having such a feature in lemmy is just a matter of time.

      Sure hope so it solves all the problems. Well except voter spoofing thats a whole new can or worms.

        All this drama happened on Mastodon. While user migration is a great feature to have for users, it won’t solve this kind of issues.
