Is it possible? I’m with sh.itjust.works but I saw a few posts who were saying that my instance blocks certain stuff. Now I’m not thinking of jumping ship right this second just wondering if that is a possibility.
This is a how to use Lemmy question so better suited for one of the support communities - check out the sidebar for suggestions.
With that said, helping people spread out onto different instances is good stuff so I think this is good info to leave up.
Yeah, the idea of this post was to hopefully one day (in the neer futur) to switch to à smaller instance in hopes to spread out a bit.
You can download your account settings, and upload to a new account on another instance. https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim
This is really cool, if it works. Anyone try it out yet?
Works fine , only one or two subs won’t pass in my situation
I wish I knew this before Vlemmy went down
Oh this is great to know thanks! This might help in the event of a unexpected shutdown. May be cool to get some auto backup tools soon!!!
You will need to make a new one.
Personally I recently did the same because lemmy.world didn’t commit to defederating meta and I didn’t want to stay there, but I am not very happy on .ml either, I get an insane amount of tankie crap on the all feed now and apparently no more nsfw posts.
I’m an anti capitalist myself but I strongly oppose the idea that someone preselects what communities are visible to me, on .world it felt much more organic and well rounded.
Ultimately I will just have to make my own instance i suppose.
there is a tons of intances, just need to look a little more
Feel free to join https://lemmings.world! No censorship (except for illegal stuff obviously) and no federation with Meta. NSFW is fine, too.
Just block the communities you don’t want to see
The problem with that is you can’t unblock what your instance blocks/defederates from.
It isn’t possible currently. You can create an account on a different instance though.
Are you that guy who had been asking “why is ‘gaybrosgonewild’ blocked”?
Hahahaha no bur that’s so funny!!
