#MastodonQuestion if one changes servers, do they lose all of their followers?

@lostinprose
You can migrate account from one instance/server to another and keep your followers, however you will loose your toots (posts) as they will remain on the previous account.

Here's the process to migrate server: https://mastodon.social/@Gargron/103393780267601137

@Em0nM4stodon good to know. I hadn't thought of that.
@lostinprose @Em0nM4stodon also, if you were following people that have follow requests enabled, they’ll have to reapprove your follow from the new account

@lostinprose There is a way to migrate to a new instance and leave a transparent redirect to your new account for your followers.

For you, I think it would be https://toot.community/settings/profile and then scroll all the way to the bottom to set it up.

Also, here is the official documentaiton on how to do it: https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/moving/
