I’ve just created an account on Lemmy.world and am able to subscribe for communities in lemmy.ml. Can I use it there? Can I use same credentials for all lemmy instances? Does it make a difference where I create one?

    My “concern” is what happens if the Lemmy instance I’m on goes down for whatever reason - let’s just say lack of funding/donations. Suddenly my account is gone.

      Most big instances in Mastodon gave agreed to giving 3-month notice in case they shut down to give time for people who don’t wish to go down with the ship to migrate their accounts to other instances. I can imagine it being the same in Lemmy, adding possible community migration

        Would future versions of Lemmy be able to sync multiple instance accounts with each other? Like hoxbug@1 and hoxbug@2 same point to the same comment?
