It should come as no surprise that the lemmy.ml [http://lemmy.ml] admin team
took about 2 minutes to decide to pre-emptively block threats / Meta. Their
transparent and opportunistic scheme to commodify the fediverse and it’s users
will not be allowed to proceed. We strongly encourage other instance
administrators to do the same, given the grave threat they pose to the
fediverse.
Same, I was only donating $2 a month but I’m not alone in finding this completely unacceptable. I applied at lemmy.ml. It’s the scorpion and the frog with these people suggesting we should just wait and see.

I’m not the one to answer that. I deleted my account on mastodon.social (no defederation policy) and signed up with mstdn.social (confirmed defed). Not sure if there is a “move” function as I never cared enough about social media posts to want to preserve them.
Currently, there is no way, though a migration of a user profile from one instance to another is planned as a feature, but not currently being worked on.
I already moved and stopped my recurring donation to them.

Ikr? When being a competitive asshole is the core of your being, the windows should be closed before something even has a chance to happen.
How does one change instances?
You don’t. Go to a different instance and sign up. Then stopping using this account.
