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
You'll have to use a browser. Navigate to lemm.ee/settings.
Done that, now how do change servers? Feel free to direct me to tech support if this is not your idea of fun
Press the export button and save the file to your device.
Now find a new instance and import that file.
Edit: follow-up questions welcome
Later on when you successfully sign up on a different Lemmy instance just go into your new user's profile settings again (exactly how you just did for https://lemm.ee/settings but it'll be [YOUR-NEW-LEMMY-INSTANCE]/settings, in there under "Import/Export Settings" look for the Import section and there you can import the file you just exported.
PS - For a quick overview of Lemmy instances you can check out https://lemmyverse.net/?order=active&open=true and/or https://join-lemmy.org/instances
Create a new account on the new server. You can do it in Voyager and just pick a server from the list, or go to that server's website in a browser.
just find another instance and make an account there, I just moved from lemm.ee cause lemmy.today was recommended in the comments on a post about the shutdown.
