I’ll be the odd one out here and write that I don’t mind not having the ability to migrate. The platform is intended to be pseudo-anonymous. I think one shouldn’t become too attached to their particular name and instead focus on the ideas being discussed and the information exchanged.
For the same reason I hope karma continues to not be a thing and ignored by most clients even if the backend reports it.
Unsurprisingly, tools for the migration of basic stuff like subscriptions and block lists have already been developed by the community.

(haven’t tried using it myself yet, but it’s probably much quicker than manual if you have a lot of subscriptions to migrate)
My migration to Lemmy.ca was a pain but it is doable. I put my Lemmy.world and Lemmy.ca side by side and started subscribing to communities I was following on Lemmy.world.
just waiting for the hability to migrate instances

It’s probably more subscriptions that people care about, particularly since they are spread out and not always easy to remember.

it’s a way, but automatic migration like in mastodon is simpler
