I’m not sure if this is new, but when I clicked on the /r/pics protest post link from the frontpage here, I was redirected to this: https://old.reddit.com/premium

I’m not sure if this is well-known or not that they’re pushing it now, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it, especially on old.reddit.

    I would love to be able to move email addresses and usernames to another server, the way we do with phone numbers.

    Remember there was a time when changing phone plans meant you have to get a different phone number?

      Totes. You can actually do that with Mastodon accounts. It’d be really nice if you could do it with Lemmy accounts - and communities.

      You can. For email, DNS serves a similar purpose to the telcos’ mobile number portability databases. If you want to move your email domain to a new server, you just need to update its DNS MX record.
