So I realized that signing up on lemmy.world may not have been the best option for me, so I'm wondering what the best way to move instances (I'd like to move to pawb.social or lemmy.blahaj.zone) for my account would be I'm most worried about leaving everything I made on this account behind forever, but I've seen online that there's no way to actually move your account to another instance, so what do you guys suggest the best procedure is?

It wasn't always an option - around the time of the first big mass migration of Reddit users it wasn't something you could do. I actually wrote a tool at that time that could automate the manual action of re-subscribing / re-blocking everything.

But yeah, these days it's a feature of Lemmy itself, which is great because it's much more efficient than trying to do things client-side.
