yeah, you're right, the problem was I signed up to any random instance that signups open so I catch up with what's happening
what's ironic was that I used Lemmy before back in 2020 (back when I started using the fediverse in general but I never expected Lemmy to take off that fast that much)
I guess I have to relearn from my mistake for the second time.
Why not just make a new account on a different instance? Are you trying to keep record of your posts? Your subscription? Blocks and friends? Can be an interesting problem for someone with the time and skill to tackle.
I think it would be nice to keep your post history, subscriptions, etc. linked to your account if you decide to switch instances. It could also give other users a way to verify that the new account is legitimate. It's not an essential feature, more of a nice-to-have.

I really hope we get the ability to migrate accounts from one instance to another, but I realize it's more complicated than it might seem.
not quite, Pleroma implemented this, though it migrates everything except posts and replies
It would be great to see Lemmy adopt this feature, but until then our accounts are stuck on sh.itjust.works since it's not a Pleroma server.
