@lemmy.fmhy.mlA subscription import/export function would be much easier to implement but I don't think that's what users want when they say they want instance migration functionality.
Was with you until the money point. It's extremely easy to get this data and there will be many open source versions doing this thing.
But I agree that who upvoted a post shouldn't be federated.
for personal use, main reasons are you won't have to worry about instance admins making arbitrary decisions that you don't agree with, and no worries about server overload or downtime.
for making an instance for public, helping fediverse become a more viable alternative by spreading the load over more instances and helping it grow.
There's https://redditle.com/ if you just want reddit results. I've had it bookamrked and find it pretty useful.
Hey the image uploading at the backend of lemmy is a bit borked right now, restarting the server fixes it for a while so we restart our instance 5 times a day but it can still cause error sometimes, only thing right now you can do is try after a while, or use an image hosting site and post through there (for posts)
We are trying to find a permanent solution to this, sorry for the inconvenience.
welcome. On the side bar on the right there is a pencil button which you can click to edit the community and icon, banners and description.
Top of all time post on lemmy is now about beans.

That's a good question, I'll update the post with it an answer to it as well.
On liftoff, assuming you have signed in, at the very top you should see local@lemmy.fmhy.ml. if you click on it, you should see a drop down with instance names and 3 options of subscribed, local and all for each.
Subscribed would show you the feed with the communities you've subscried to, local will show you content from the communities hosted on your home instance, and all will show you every post from every instance we are federated with. That's basically the r/all equaivalent of lemmy and what you should browse to interact with other instances.
