What I most from Reddit, is the communities there. Nobody can nuke that - if Lemmy.ml disappears, those groups will have (or make) copies elsewhere.
I don't think anyone follows me on Reddit, but if I followed people, I guess they'd re-emerge soon after. Of course that's not great if you follow 100 people - Mastodon's much better at retaining that sort of thing.
yeah, what we'd really need is issuing ActivityPub
Move
events for community actors (afaik both Lemmy users and communities are actors on the ActivityPub side, thus communities can be followed / posted to from Mastodon, too). this would allow moving communities between servers to make sure that followers of the old community just carry on following the new communityI guess moving followers of users would behave in a similar way, albeit probably much less critical for the health of communities
