Bluesky managed to go offline practically entirely. I count on you folks to spork the hell out of this.

Is migrating really practical? Will your followers automatically follow you on your new server?

[–] poVoq@slrpnk.net 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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.

followers

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:

This is where I am now

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’d assume they’d just leave a last post saying:

This is where I am now

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
