I have just made my first lemmy account on lemmy.world. What happens to my account in the event that this particular instance goes offline temporarily or permanently? It seems like I will have to either wait for the instance to come back online or create a new account, is this correct?
For that matter, would it be the same for mastadon and other fediverse services?
But you can export and import your settings, subscriptions, blocks, easily. As already mentioned it’s not a bad idea to have a backup account.
