Migrating from one instance to another
Is there an easy way to migrate from one instance to another? I’d love to be able to move my subscriptions and profile settings at the very least.

No, this is the most serious lacking feature IMO.
But you could of course simply register your username at multiple instances and subscribe to the same communities. As there's no 'followers' like on Mastodon, the effect is the same.
That's true, but I wanted to avoid having to do all that work. :) Just being lazy.
Not officially, but there's this tool to migrate your subscriptions over. It works really well. -> https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim
Trying it now.
Let us know how you get on
It worked as far as syncing the subscriptions. I was also hoping it would sync the profile settings like languages, display name etc. Which it didn't. Not a big deal though as I was mostly after the subscriptions.
