As a casual lemmy user... how do you switch instances? Download your data, create a new account, upload your data?
Just create a new account. The other account will continue to exists and so its posts. Does it matter to transfer them?
Dunno. Still getting used to federated communities like this, guess I assumed it would be more complex than that
You could do what's discussed in this thread https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1985
I just delete the old account and create a new one on the other instance. I have no interest in keeping a comment history. The internet and it's communities are a void for me. My social interaction, what little there is, is handled in meat space.
