Thank you for all your feedback on my @SamXavia account in my previous post about why you prefer Kbin, it really opened up my mind on why Kbin might be the better option.

Since I posted it I've learned a bit more about Kbin but would love to keep the previous content that I posted on Lemmy.world, Am I able to do this, and if I can how?

I do know that mastodon has the ability to move between instances. Export and import feature plus announcement. https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2019/06/how-to-migrate-from-one-server-to-another/

But for some reason isn't yet implemented in both lemmy and kbin.

@melroy Yeah I really do hope that in the future we will have a better way to transfer our data across instances as it would be a welcome change for people wanting to switch or if an instance is shutting down and users have to move about in the #Fediverse. It just allows people to control there data that little bit more and not loose things when something 'better' comes along.
