My original concern about “losing people” wasn’t about transferring away, but rather about leaving the fediverse entirely over the concern of having to remake an account and having to curate up to my standards all over again. Which is now a moot point since I’ve been given solutions to migrate easily.

I don’t think the world admins really care if users transfer away. That’s just federation in action. Good stuff.

Oh gotcha. I’d suppose that if a person is that concerned with Threads, they’re probably invested in the idea of Lemmy such that transferring to another instance is not out of the question. Someone who’s not interested in putting in the effort to transfer probably doesn’t feel strongly either way about Threads. That’s just an assumption on my part, of course.

YMMV ofc but I’d tend to agree that it makes sense yes.

Where you gonna go? Back to reddit?
NOSin@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Since it’s a moot point now, it’s not a consideration anymore but ew no, that wasn’t even an option in the first place.
