Ah interesting! I thought we could migrate accounts, is that a feature with Bluesky? (I think maybe that’s what I was thinking of…) I like using the Boost for Lemmy app (it was initially Boost for Reddit before the API shutdown so I kept the app and changed to Lemmy), and when I go to the add account screen there’s a whole big list of instances for me to choose from so I guess I just need to research/find a list of who owns what and start over again. Haha. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! :)

Edit: Or are all these different instances I’m seeing here still using the same Lemmy software. I think I may have misunderstood the “software” part of your comment initially… But now I’m even more confused. Haha. Yay for tech rabbit holes! :)

Oooooof. Guess I gotta learn how to move myself to another instance now, and if my fave app will even work with that instance. Heh. Sigh. How disappointing. Really appreciate you calling it out, explaining it, and sharing the source.

Wait, whaa? You mean lemmy.world, too? Can you please point me to a source for this? I joined on lemmy.world just as a reddit refugee when they killed all the 3rd party apps and I’m still only partway familiar with how the fediverse works haha (why I opened this thread)… I’ve had a good experience on lemmy.world so far, I obviously don’t want to inadvertently support those initiatives, though…
