I just recently replaced the screen on an iPad idk the gen but they are all about the same in the screen replacement in my experience and the screen on my Pixel 7 Pro. Both were actually shockingly easy and imo didn't require special tools. Just need a heat gun, eyeglass screwdriver, etc. You can get the kits with all the "special tools" but really you could make it happen with a butter knife.
Remove yes but not transition it to a new instance. But this is one of the reasons I'm using a temp email and unique username and password for each account that isn't tied anywhere else. More things are easy to gather together knowledge wise compared to say reddit.
I was having trouble in liftoff and the browser. Cleared data and cache from liftoff thinking maybe something got messed up there and now I can't even log back into my .world account 🤷♂️ I'll hang here for a bit I guess.
Idk how I feel about easily migrating accounts from one instance to another or even having my password pass between instances on activypub. If it's easy to migrate an account then it would be possible for an admin of a rogue instance or even just a rogue admin of a perfectly fine instance to take your account. One thing I learned since joining is these accounts are kind of disposable. Personally I only have 2 on 2 different instances one of which is lemmy.world which is/has grown a whole bunch in the last few weeks. Personally idk how that kind of growth is sustainable on this kind of platform and I'm not shocked they are running into issues. When an instance explodes the way lemmy.world has they need to make an extreme investment into the server side of the instance to keep things running smoothly and that doesn't stay cheap or easy for very long.
