      Is there a way to jump instances and bring all your content/moderation with you? I really didn’t sign up for tankie voat, but I have growing communities in this instance.

        Unfortunately not right now, maybe in the future. You can make the community on the new instance, stop all posting on the old one and pin a link to the new one so users are forced over, but that might not work and you could lose a largish portion of your userbase.

      That’s true.

      However, I feel like the ones from lemmygrad are slightly more unhinged.

        The downvotes say a whole lot. At least one of them is known for botting downvotes.
