- We are not YPTB. If you have a problem with the way an instance or community is run, then take it up over at !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com.
- Addendum: Yes we know that you think ml/hexbear/grad are tankies and or .world are a bunch of liberals but it gets old quickly. Try and come up with new material.

unless it's my home instance, and then I have a sad
Just go to a different instance website...
I guess blocklist and sub feed are missing but i just use All anyways
You'll also lose access to messages, notifications, and saved posts/comments.
How many Lemmy messages are that valuable?
You don't want to miss any important messages from Nicole.
I just got one all the way over on PieFed.
I feel seen☺️.
Export your stuff and import it into your other account every so often, i cross export and import to all my accounts so I don't have to remember which account i saved what post
That doesn't help with notifications and messages.
No it doesn't, but since the instance i was on before died it's something I lost but at least I had the rest of my stuff
Meh, you can always browse another instance or pick a new instance to register at as a backup.
Some apps have "guest accounts" that you can use to lurk while upgrade downtime on your instance
I'll share my alts with you 🥺
Same ._. I have a kbin,piefed,LW alt but i used to have like three more. (including this account, used to be just an alt)
I only ever use my piefed and LW alt, kbin is just there.
in my whole (last I checked) 8 months on Lemmy I've never had to move instances because of downtime, even temporarily 🤷♀️
My instance had a few hiccups after it was started, but they were resolved quickly enough.
But it's disingenuous to pretend that an instance going down is something the fediverse is immune to. If we had account portability or something similar, then maybe.
