That's right, your credentials are unique to your instance.
so how do you move to another instance and keep all your comments?
I don't think that's possible since each instance is kind of a silo from each other with regard to your activity on that specific instance, even if you post on other instances.. Like since you made a comment/post on one instance that activity stays on that instance.
Seems reasonable I probably should have expected that to be fair
That depends. I think the migration process is part of ActivityPub and would need to be implemented in lemmy. With mastodon, you can move from instance to instance almost transparently.
