I would really love if this became an option, since I’m planning on making my own instance. I’d like to keep my subscriptions, posts, comments and bookmarks and migrating would be something great. What do you think?

So I’m wondering if a DIY middle ground can be reached with the API and some scripting, perhaps even just in the browser after entering your credentials.
You won’t be able to move your posts, but you could link to your old profile in your bio.
But I can see it being viable to basically download your old subscriptions and bookmarks and basically applying them to your new account.
There’s already a tool for moving over the subscriptions: https://github.com/wescode/lemmy_migrate
Nice one, cheers for sharing!
