If everyone was spread out onto different instances, and communities were based all over the fediverse, the decisions of one instance would be less impactful.

I’m beginning to see that in order for lemmy to be truly federated, users must also become federated
User data needs to be exportable and importable somewhere else.
If anything, I would say user data should be a lot more perishable than it is. Original content, answers to questions that don't need to be answered again with a good search system, those are nice to preserve, but every word from every conversation ever?
I was meaning things like subscriptions and preferences. Not posts and votes.
Sure, like a config file to export and import.
This loosing my first account sucked
