Wondering if someone can help me move accounts. Instructions say to create an alias on your new server. When doing this, the form says, **"**Specify the username@domain of the account you want to move from." So I did that, specifying "brianvastag@sciencemastodon.com" as the account I want to move from.

But then when I go to the migration page on sciencemastodon.com and type in that handle, it says "brianvastag@sciencemastodon.com" is not an alias of this account.

So I'm confused.

@brianvastag Never had to do it myself but this might be helpful, especially as it is guiding you step-by-step.
