FYI I have made a tool that can backup / copy your account settings, subscriptions, and blocks to a new account: https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim
There are others out there as well if you look.
Obviously the loss of .ml communities would still be catastrophic to Lemmy, but at least your new account won't start from ground-zero, and you can be less effected by downtime by having 2 accounts with the same subscriptions.
So should I just go ahead and make an account somewhere else? Made mine like a month ago and just picked ml at random
Doesn't hurt! You can always make another account.
Alright went with .one - anything i don’t know about this instance? Run by KKK or anything? Lol
I've never heard anything but I've never looked too hard either!
