Is migrating really practical? Will your followers automatically follow you on your new server?
On Mastodon yes, it is also compatible with a few other software like Akkoma. Your followers will get a notification that you moved and will automatically follow the new account. Works very seamlessly in my experience.
Thanks a lot, very helpful
On Mastodon it's very easy and it brings your followers over
It offers possibilities, which are infinitely more probable than systems without such possibilities.
Lol.
Buddy if I have any followers I'd be happy to leave them behind.
But I'm not into that twitter/Instagram/Tiktok nonsense.
If someone was, I'd assume they'd just leave a last post saying:
They don't need to jump instances if they're federated, they just need to follow a new account.
Some people do not recognize questions anymore. You write a lot of stuff that nobody's interested in, you could have just said: "no".
Edit, this was based on wrong information provided by @givesomefucks: ~~And that means that if I am following a person because they write useful things that I'm interested in or that I need for my work, I will loose connection when they suddenly move. That has nothing to do with what you call nonsense; it is a practical consequence of the Fediverse not having migration built in. Fediverse basically offers to create a new account, that is not migration.~~
Unless...
I honestly didn't type that much, less than your reply actually...
But it's ironic you complained about the length of a short comment, yet obviously didn't read the majority of the comment.
Have a nice life bub, feel free to "follow" or not if you want, but don't expect replys anymore
