Why are all basic app settings tied to the Lemmy account/instance? (lemdro.id)

Why on earth are most, if not all (?), basic and general app settings tied to the Lemmy account@instance?

It really doesn't make sense to me that stuff like "base font size" and virtually all app usability and appearance settings are reset to their defaults every time I add or switch Lemmy accounts/instances.

Even if there are good arguments to be made that the app *should *look completely different for each account@instance and not share any settings between them (and I'm struggling to think of many), why would that be default behavior?

I'm pretty sure my app's font size and media handling didn't change every time when I switched accounts in Sync for Reddit.
