PSA:

If you migrate a Mastodon instance:

* Keep the secrets the same or people WILL NOT BE ABLE TO LOG IN WITH 2FA (I fucked this up)

* Remember to migrate the Redis database to keep your local timeline - see https://stackoverflow.com/a/22024286 for how

* Make sure your new instance has enough RAM or you'll have a bad time (I recommend at least 2GB and even that is pushing it)

@Elizafox great tips! Can you add them to the production guide documentation?

@jec @Elizafox Seconded - perhaps as a separate page though. Redis migration could also be done via streaming replication
