I love the fediverse, but it hasn’t fully solved the migration need problem. If I open an account on an instance which I later discover I don’t like, I have to migrate for that as well.
The point as I see it is just limited to who do I want to follow, and what platforms can I use to do so? If bluesky turns to shit in a decade, but I get value out of it for that decade, maybe that’s enough for my needs.
So what’s the point? enshitification will inevitably hit them as well and then people will have to migrate again and again

(FWIW, I am not on bluesky)
For Mastodon there’s a feature for transferring your account from one server to another, with its history, etc.
Oh cool, is there anything similar for lemmy?
I haven’t had to search it for lemmy, so I honestly don’t know.
It’s certainly possible. I’m giving it a shot. I prefer federated systems, as I said, I also have Mastodon
