How nice, the server I chose is telling me it's shutting down. Don't have the energy to figure out how to move my profile to another server.

Goodbye mastadon. You could have been so good.

@funficient Aw, that's a shame it wasn't sustainable, especially since your server has a sizable user base. I've been following a few people on https://uiuxdev.social, hopefully some of you will migrate to another instance.

If you see anyone looking for a new place, maybe https://hci.social would be a good fit for some. It has a medium-to-long-term plan for financing and the admin team seems to be in a solid place. @andresmh

Thank you for being here, I enjoyed your posts! 🙂

@julian @andresmh Thanks! Sounds like my kind of server! The problem is figuring out how to move my profile. Of course there's no obvious selection in the UI. I already checked. Thus the frustration...

Mastadon is built by developers for developers, no one else...

@funficient Yeah, account migration is definitely more of a process than it should be.

Mostly due to mastodon.lol also having just announced its impending shutdown, I've seen a bunch of people in your position over the past day or two, so I've noticed a bit of what's helped and what hasn't. This guide looks solid if you do end up wanting to invest the time: https://fedi.tips/transferring-your-mastodon-account-to-another-server/ But again, it's understandable if not. 👍

@julian Thank you! I'll give it a bash....
