Kate McGinty / Caryn CaldwellHello, hello! I just got my invitation to writing.exchange and couldn't wait to follow up on it. So thrilled to be here and looking forward to talking about reading, writing, and whatever else goes on in this instance. Bonus: I got to keep my 'following' list, so I'll keep up with everyone I followed from other servers, too.
Cindy Muir@katemcginty Did you move from another to writing.exchange? I want to be there instead, need to figure out how to switch.
@cindymuir Hi Cindy! I moved over from mas.to It's a very nice server, but I wanted something writer-specific, and that's what this one is. I'm on writer.exchange ) This server requires invitations, which I think is probably to cut down on spam and bots and such, and to help keep it for writers. (That's a guess.) I've never tried a private message on here, but I'll do it now. Crossing my fingers it works. If so, you'll get one from me soon...
@katemcginty Thanks got the invite, I just want to move not start from scratch, do i need to back up these posts so i don't loose what i had?
@cindymuir Yes! I found a post on migrating servers. I'll see if I can find it again. It was very helpful.
@cindymuir It took me a minute, but I found it! Here's the article I used: https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/moving/#export
