The experience of moving my fediverse presence off of Mastodon has been mostly crickets, in part I think because Mastodon just doesn’t seem to reliably respect account moves outside of the Mastodon garden. Reply if you see this please?

    1. Yeah I have some choice words for Mastodon’s account migration [un]support. Apparently it deleted the “Move” activity from my outbox at some point, which meant that over half my followers never got redirected to the new account. So now I’m back on the old account manually posting periodic reminders.

  1. @avdi Did you get any replies? From my account here on mas.to, I don’t see any posts on this account except for this one (the “mostly crickets” one, if the reply doesn’t track properly). Does your server only send posts to followers and not to your public outbox?
