One of the L.W admins has said that it could be a temporary measure and they are just seeking advice about their legal exposure. They're also going to speak to one of the admins over here. So it might just resolve itself.

I already made an account here, I honestly can't count on lemmy.world to not defederate or block random communities. Even if they take back that decision I still don't have as much trust in them as I once did.

The nature of federation and defederation makes it sensible to have a few accounts, to get around defederating and as general backup in case your home instance goes down. I imagine some apps will allow you to combine feeds from different accounts and this issue will be smoothed over.

I think the liftoff app already has a feature like this, it's been a bit buggy for me though, but that might just be because of lemmy.world's uptime issues due to the ongoing attacks and maybe it would work better if I didn't have a login for lemmy.world on the app.
