Sorry I know this doesn't answer your question, but just wanted to make sure you know you can sub to communities here from your current account, right?
Yes, I do. But thanks for checking! I'd like to make an account here just because many of the communities I'm into are here.
Not to keep hammering a moot point, but why? Subscribing to remote communities is totally normal. I sub to more communities on
lemmy.mlthan probably any other single server (though I sub to communities on lots of other instances too), but I wouldn't want my account there because it's overcrowded. It seems that there's little reason to colocate your account with the communities you sub, and very good reason not to keep adding accounts to the biggest servers until they fall over.Well simply, for me it's just really janky to have to look at a community here, then subscribe to it from another instance in order to interact with it. There's nothing wrong with it, but I just would rather have an account here, where the majority of communities I'm subscribed to are. Seems a little simpler.
Fair enough, just seen a lot of new folks misunderstanding that part :)
