I would personally join another instance to have access to both lemmy.ml and my wife's comments. Why don't you join lemm.ee for example? It hasn't defederated or been defederated with any big instance.

Yeah this along with having more communities aligned with my interests is why I joined programming.dev. I like beehaw's communities, and lost a good 6-7 communities when they defederated from the other two big ones.

So I moved to a third instance, to get used to this place until I set my own up sometime in the near future.

Yup. I'm also moving between instances. I have multiple accounts. All I do is browse and meme anyway. I don't need a "home address" with a doorbell. Liftoff app is improving it's inbox and currently you can switch very fast between servers' inboxes. The problem is more that I have to make a lot more effort than I would if this weren't happening, and that many people don't even know they aren't "stuck" with their first account.

Yeah, I've been really glad Jerboa has multi account support
