Ehhh… if you mean one can port their post and comment history to another instance, then, no ^[1][1.1]^. If you mean one can port their account settings to another instance, then yes ^[2][1.1]^.

The main point is being able to still access all of the communities if your admin goes rogue (similar to what Reddit is doing). That's possible on Lemmy, you export / import your settings and you're set.
Keep the same username, add a link to your new and old profiles and the bio, and you just moved instances. You may have lost your comments history, but there is no karma anyway, so why care? And it's still accessible on your old account.
Does it keep your list of blocked communities?
Yes. Subscriptions and all blocklists (users, instances, communities)
Thank god for that! My blocked list is so long it's probably worth money.
Export it now as a backup, you never know!
