Hi,

I created a few communities here and want to switch to a new instance.

Is it possible to hand over ownership to my new account on a different instance?

What if my new instance would defederate my current instance?

You can make your new account a moderator, no matter what instance it's on. As long as it can post.

If your new instance defederates, you'll still have your original account as a moderator.
