"Civilian casualty"?
I'm sorry, but I don't understand your reference and/or sarcasm.
Based on your reply, should the takeaway be that there is no way to block entire instances?

I believe he's saying that he alone is standing against your tank
Only possible interpretation

Me, who chose a big default instance before knowing anything about Lemmy: guess I will be a civilian casualty
-
Yeah, I genuinely don't know what's a good instance to move to though. Even yours is controversial for being too big.

It costs all my account history, not knowing people responded to my old comments, losing or having to migrate all my saved posts/comments, etc.
When I first joined there was talk of Lemmy supporting account migration between instances do I was waiting for that, but that has petered out I think.
As someone who has changed accounts you don't really lose that much. Karmas not a concept here, so that's the big one.
Besides that, most apps let you log into multiple accounts so you can still check all of the legacy interactions if you need to.
The main pain was subscribing to all the communities again.

Think about how quickly the entire WWWIII (Wizarding-World War III) would have ended if all of the good guys had simply armed up with good ol’ American hot lead. Basilisk? Let’s see how tough it is when you shoot it with a .470 Nitro Express. Worried about its Medusa-gaze? Wear night vision goggles. The image is light-amplified and re-transmitted to your eyes. You aren’t looking at it—you’re looking at a picture of it.
Imagine how epic the first movie would be if Harry had put a breeching charge on the bathroom wall, flash-banged the hole, and then went in wearing NVGs and a Kevlar-weave stab-vest, carrying a SPAS-12. And have you noticed that only Europe seems to a problem with Deatheaters? Maybe it’s because Americans have spent the last 200 years shooting deer, playing GTA: Vice City, and keeping an eye out for black helicopters over their compounds. Meanwhile, Brits have been cutting their steaks with spoons.Remember: gun-control means that Voldemort wins. God made wizards and God made muggles, but Samuel Colt made them equal. Now I know what you’re going to say: “But a wizard could just disarm someone with a gun!” Yeah, well they can also disarm someone with a wand (as they do many times throughout the books/movies). But which is faster: saying a spell or pulling a trigger?
Avada Kedavra, meet Avtomat Kalashnikova. Imagine Harry out in the woods, wearing his invisibility cloak, carrying a .50bmg Barrett, turning Deatheaters into pink mist, scratching a lightning bolt into his rifle stock for each kill. I don’t think Madam Pomfrey has any spells that can scrape your brains off of the trees and put you back together after something like that. Voldemort’s wand may be 13.5 inches with a Phoenix-feather core, but Harry’s would be 0.50 inches with a tungsten core. Let’s see Voldy wave his at 3,000 feet per second. Better hope you have some Essence of Dittany for that sucking chest wound. I can see it now...Voldemort roaring with evil laughter and boasting to Harry that he can’t be killed, since he is protected by seven Horcruxes, only to have Harry give a crooked grin, flick his cigarette butt away, and deliver what would easily be the best one-liner in the entire series:
“Well then I guess it’s a good thing my 1911 holds 7+1.” And that is why Harry Potter should have carried a 1911. -
