This is why I'm glad I made redundant accounts on multiple instances. When there are problems on lemmy.world, I can just hop on over to another. That's never been an option with Reddit.
Now if there was only a way to export or sync user settings like subscriptions, it would be perfect.
There's actually another thread on exactly this topic: https://lemmy.ml/post/1875767
Is there a way to link posts in the context of the reader’s instance? Like with !c community links?
It’s not great but if you copy the URL into your instance’s search, you can get to the post that way.
Yeah that’s what I’ve been doing. There was this great bot that was autocorrecting community links and I was hoping this was possible for post-links on Lemmy instances.
I don't think so, but I'd love to be proven wrong!
