I'd like to move my profile, complete with comment/post history and subscribed communities, from the "flagship instance" to another one. Is that possible?

EDIT: Created a feature request on GitHub: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1985

It would be nice... Hubzilla (Zot protocol) do it (in a very nice way, you have a multiple identity, hosted in several instances, one of them is the main identity). But I think activitypub does not.

But, at least at mastodon you can export/import your account. But I think some info is lost. For example your followers.

That’s unfortunate that Lemmy doesn’t support this yet. Hopefully they’ll implement this functionality someday.
