One thing you should do is grab your data for easy moving, you haven’t already.
Assuming you’re using the default Lemmy web UI (not Voyager, or Photon, or a mobile app, or whatever), click on your username in the top right, and select “Settings”.
On the settings page, there’s a section called “Import/Export Settings”. Click the “Export” button and let your browser download the file.
Then, when you switch instances, you can go into the same Settings page on the new instance, select the file you downloaded, and hit “Import” and you will automatically be resubscribed to the communities you subscribed to.
Thank you so so much for showing how to export it. I didn’t want to have to start from scratch in trying to figure out who I followed and who I didn’t. Appreciate it once and again.

Wow didn’t know this was an option. Need to migrate my off of lemm.ee then. Thanks for the heads up.

Great, I am using voyager. How do I achieve the same goal?
Voyager doesn’t have the ability to do this in the app, you will have to use a browser
