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.
Done that, now how do change servers? Feel free to direct me to tech support if this is not your idea of fun
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.

Press the export button and save the file to your device.
Now find a new instance and import that file.
