So I’ve let this account languish. I’m on Post (@popehat) and I’ve been avoiding Mastodon only because I need to figure out how to switch servers (this one is blocked all over). I’m logged in on my iPad but, hilariously, I can’t find where I wrote my password and the “recover password” function isn’t working or is super-slow to send an email. Anyway. I intend to build up and use a Mastodon account now that I’m leaving Twitter but it might take a bit.

@popehat Glad to hear you'll be here more! Hope they get your password to you.

If you want, you can set up an account on a new Mastodon instance now and tell people "having trouble with migration For Reasons but I am moving to [X]." And then migrate your masthead.social acct to the new acct whenever you get the password sorted.

All migration does is move your followers; you can move your follows yourself, & most active followers will move themselves if you announce it at various times of day.
