How does one move a community to a different instance? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I remember this became possible. I'd like to know how to do it and what the effects would be.

  • Would I lose all post history?
  • Would there be issues with the posts votes?
  • Do I need a mod account from thr instance being moved to etc?

If anyone has seen a post with a guide I'd love a link or if you have experience I'd love to hear.

Thank you.

Make the existing one mod posts only and pin a post linking to the new one?

All will be lost.

Thanks. The more I look the more I fear that's the only way

It's not as bad as it sounds.
