So far Lemmy is vibing. Everyone here is excited and optimistic and willing to put up with a few rough spots to be part of something.

When the Eternal September comes, which it will, how does a Lemmy instance deal with bad actors?

    definitely. account migration and maybe community migration (unsure how that’d work exactly) would be great. losing history every time an instance shuts down isn’t very fun

      Could you potentially export your preferences and list of subscriptions to a JSON file, which you could then supply to a new instance?

        Almost definitely, but no guarantee a new instance will have the same communities 1-1 though. It would be really useful for resubbing to non-local communities thought
