I have just made my first lemmy account on lemmy.world. What happens to my account in the event that this particular instance goes offline temporarily or permanently? It seems like I will have to either wait for the instance to come back online or create a new account, is this correct?
For that matter, would it be the same for mastadon and other fediverse services?
a few people have ‘backup’ accounts with the same username on different instances just in case… they subscribe to the same content from those accounts so if an instance goes down, they can jump right back in
