    If you’re on one of the bigger instances (lemmy.world for example) use https://lemmyverse.net/ to pick a smaller, less crowded instanceto call home.

    I created an account on reddthat.com earlier today, and it’s way less laggy than lemmy.world (my initial instance).

    Hopefully in time lemmy gains functionality thatmakis account backup/porting easy so moving instances in nbd.

      Lemmy at least needs a feature like Mastodon to allow you to migrate your accounts to another instance.

      Or even simpler, a feature that lets you aggregate history, posts, comments and subscriptions from multiple instances in a transparent way.

      Sort of a meta-account / fedacount that tells all Lemmy instances that accounts a, b, c, and d are all the same user.

        Doesn’t that kind of go against the idea of federation? I don’t know if it’s worth compromising on.

          aggregating so many different cats community into one feed is a dream🤩🐱.

          Right now i subscribe to 5 different technology@<instances>, but if i could create a custom community set according to my preferences then i could see all those 5 in one layout, without breadmaking and other contents breaking them up. the choice now is all posts from all communities or only one specific community.

            I can completely understand that :)
            Maybe an option to make your own collections of communities? A function on the client side where you can apply tags, or something like that?
