I have moved instances in order to join the newly created epicure.social, as a result of which I have lost a couple of followers, all of my follows and all of my posts. But that's fine, because it's early days on here.

So by way of #introduction, I'm a UK #wine trade lifer, interested in everything from the nakedly commercial to the irredeemably nerdy, and hoping to be part of a burgeoning wine community here. Let me know if I should be following you!

@davidround it is not letting .e follow you back, even though I already followed you.
@sarahmayg you’re showing up as following me on your profile page and you’re on my followers list, so it should iron out.
@davidround You can get your follows back quite easily. Just export them from your old account, then import to the new. I'll describe in more detail via DM if you need.
@simonjwoolf there were just a couple of stragglers when I imported them, but all there now, thanks. Plus a whole bunch of new ones, so I think I have found my home on Mastodon. Thanks for setting up this instance.
@davidround My pleasure David. Delighted to have you join us here!
@simonjwoolf @davidround Actually Simon, could you help me import my followers as well? I had no idea that was even possible...
@weinstory @davidround Hey there Paula! Are you coming from twitter or from another Mastodon instance? So I know which instructions to provide.
@simonjwoolf from Twitter. I just tried the import function but it didn't seem to recognize my "handle." *I.Hate.New.Platforms.
@weinstory you need to add your full Mastodon handle to your Twitter profile. Ie: @weinstory @epicure.social (without the space)
@simonjwoolf And by that I mean THANK YOU for your help :)
@davidround Your posts are not lost, they live on under your old account.
