12 years of reddit. It will take some time to adjust but I also switched from google to duckduckgo years ago after decades of google, and then too never looked back. Lemmy does need a LOT of work, still, but so did reddit in the early days..
To those working on Lemmy, please don't fuck this up for us. Don't be a spez.
They kinda can't be a spez, by design. Just make sure you make backup accounts on all the other instances, and use them occasionally
It'd be cool if lemmy implements features that'll help switching instances easier, like what mastodon did.
get to the github repo and chuck a comment in support of this with maybe some description of your use case and benefits too
Admittedly, I don't know how switching instance work in Mastodon either, I just know that it's possible
