It’s very likely related, but we also figured out that both of debounced’s (the admin of kbin.run) accounts on GitHub and Matrix were deleted last night. So there is a possibility that kbin.run is no more.

Is the problem account making or data having persistence/backups?

Or is the issue having an account on service A, service A dieing and then when you create an account on service B you have to start over again, so we need to improve account portability?

I guess I also wonder... Is that a real problem for Lemmy? For Mastodon where you follow users sure, but does anyone care about their Lemmy account?

Ideally both issues should be fixed.

Personally I don't care much about old posts that nobody reads anyway. But my nick, settings, subscriptions, avatar, and block list are important.

So perfect solution should be ability to log in from any instance, not just the one I made my account on.

Lemmy allows to export and import those in one click. Does Mbin also support this?

Can I export it from an instance that doesn't exist anymore?

No, that's why I save it every few weeks
