No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why isn't it easy to transfer your lemmy account to a new instance?
15·4 days agoThere is no good way to transfer already sent messages and written posts. Transfering all satabase entries connected to your user account may be possible, but depending on how active you’ve been, this would already cause a lot of traffic. The next issue is images. Do you transfer them also? That would mean even more traffic. How do you handle federated content? Your messages not only live on your home server, they are duplicated to all federated instances. You’d have to contact all instances to change owner of those posts. Alternatively, your old server would have to keep redirecting to your new account. All in all, there are so many edge cases to consider for so little gain, it doesn’t make sense to invest dev time into it.

241·15 days agoWhy is it not common sense to say “You point a gun at someone = You intend to kill them”. Pointing a gun at someone in itself should not be treated as something trivial.

5·22 days ago“The president is truly revered in the U.S. So to be able to sit in the proximity of him at Mar-a-Lago, and then you hear like the Iran war was launched from Mar-a-Lago.”
