No one really knows how things will play out but I was wondering if people are committed to Lemmy, or would the mod team migrate to greener pastures if a better, more functional alternative comes to the forefront.

I’m hoping Lemmy can improve but I personally don’t love using it. Its still early days though so that might change. There are a couple promising alternatives in development right now but since they aren’t out, everyone is migrating to lemmy.

As someone with a disability, the UI/UX is problematic and makes me physically ill after using it for a short period of time.

    I was wondering about that. But I can’t find an easy way to do it.

    If I hypothetically wanted to move from from lemmy.ml to another instance, how would I do it short of starting over without my subscriptions/comments/posts?

      My understanding is that the functionality does not exist yet, but fediverse apps should have apis which enable this (which means it should be on the roadmap for lemmy). Since then I’ve learned that these APIs have some holes but overall the intent IIUC is that you can take your content and go elsewhere. This means instances cannot pull a reddit and leverage the content against you.
