You can achieve that by adding a link to your old profile from the new and vice versa.
To my knowledge, this is not possible at the moment.
Indeed, and probably never going to happen. Even Mastodon do not support actual migration, they just add a redirection to your new profile from the old and vice versa.
I’d still be starting from scratch posting-history-wise.
Why is that an issue? Lemmy has no karma, and if you want to keep you "reputation", you can use the same username and picture on both sides, people will recognize you.
Go to your settings, export your settings, then import them on the new account.
That's it. If you want to be fancy, you can add your new account on your old bio and vice-versa, but that's mostly it.
If you want to keep your "reputation", use the same username on both sides, people will recognize you.
To be honest, there is
So it seems like the lemmy.ml one was US oriented anyway
Old is always nice, but indeed the dev doesn't seem active anymore
It is on your profile. Do you have "Undetermined" selected in your language settings?
Lemmy.cafe is a single admin instance, it is one accident away from joining the graveyard of long-gone instances: https://piefed.social/post/253109
Also, using the beta version of the software isn't usually recommended, as this might ironically lead to federation issues
What community is it?
No worries. Feel free to start a new thread there if you feel so, there might have been new communities in the meantime, and it's always good to have a refresher once in a while
No idea about that point specifically unfortunately. My idea was more to discuss the instance choice rather than the blocking.
Is there anything that they can do about it? It’s not that I am against telling them but… why complain about something over which they have little to no control?
Bringing this up to the attention of the instance members. If that happens too much, people might consider leaving to another instance. It's this process that's helping people to move to instances that are stable and with responsive admins.
It’s common, it’s expected, and at this point
It's not
I think that no instance other than Lemmy.World itself has any “expectation” to be fully up2date, specifically wrt content that is on Lemmy.World itself?
See my comment above with lemmy.zip, lemm.ee, feddit.org being uptodate with LW
I could show you the same for the other 15 instances from the top 20, but you get the point
Thanks, I wasn't aware. Microblogs seems to be easier to manage than threads, so it might be more difficult for Lemmy
