I think it has less bugs too. I really like how it functions.

    Also use throwaway credentials and not get too attached.

    Even if the host knows your password, it wouldn’t really matter insofar as that password is only used there and nowhere else, and I hope no one is so super attached to their Lemmy accounts the way they were for their Reddit ones.

    The “being attached” component is particularly notable here because due to Federation, instances can choose not to interact with each other, so ultimately one is likely to have multiple accounts on different instances depending on their situation (for example, it wouldn’t surprise me that a number of people have a Beehaw account and then another account on a different instance).

    I get the concern, but ultimately I see it as a non-issue.

      It is going to be hard but I think if my instance went down or defederated I would be able to detach from my account and start over.
