At least as big an issue for Lemmy and Kbin is community migration. A server that hosts a popular community shutting down is a very real risk, and simply telling users to switch doesn't scale. (No, not everything needs to scale, but it would be better if that did.)

I just did a quick search, and users have opened issues asking for both user and community migration on both. So they're certainly aware of it. When it will be added, I dunno - it took a while for Mastodon to get user migration, and I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out that community migration is a larger problem than user migration.

Here's an issue for Lemmy user/community migration: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3057

And here's one for Kbin: https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/382

Lemmy seems to have a lot more contributors than Kbin, but who knows, maybe someone will dust off their god-tier 100x PHP skills and Kbin will get it first.
