Moving accounts to different instances has become a common need.
In the articles I've seen explaining federation to the public, interoperating with different social media platforms AND the ability to migrate between instances were the two most frequently mentioned features.
No platform has fully implemented that yet.
BlueSky isn't finished and Threads just came out yesterday. I don't know about KBin or Lemmy ( founded by a "tankie" communist in favor of authoritarianism ).
I've seen criticism about Threads not letting users go once they signed up. An unfair critic might make a similar indictment about Mastodon to an ignorant audience. Users don't have the promised freedom without the ability to easily and completely migrate.
