Now that smaller instances are disappearing, which instances do you think will stand the test of time? (lemmy.ca)

I had an account on lemmy.one and now the instance has been down for a day or two so I made this new account. I also heard other small instances are dead or disappeared.

So which ones do you think will actually stick around for a long time?

ALSO, does anyone know how to get my subscriptions from lemmy.one and import it here? TIA!

Not so much migrate as be able to use it from anywhere and have it replicated. Same with communities.

Give things a unique ID, and access it from anywhere, even if the original server goes away.

This kind of thing may not be possible with current ActivityPub protocols, but there's always room for improvement.
