Sadly still stuck on the OG lemmy.ml. Still waiting impatiently to be able to migrate my account to an another smaller instance.
What do you mean waiting to migrate?
Post history migration will never be implemented. But you can already use apps to move over your subscribe lists etc.
With 0.19, you can even move your subscribe list in two clicks from the settings (you get a JSON file that you can import on another instance) without external apps
Oooh :c
What’s so bad about lemmy.ml?
I assume the usual complaint, which is that it's the one of the only major servers where tankies are prevalent.
That's, of course, not to suggest that even a majority of its users are tankies or that there aren't plenty of great communities there, but the users who are tankies seem to be almost entirely split between lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.
