So I found this page with instructions (6 steps) on how to move my #mastodon account from one #instance to another ... Seems easy enough?

Soo ... I am second thoughts about switching #mastodon instances. Can I find out for an #instance which other instances are blocked on it?

FWIW, I thought, if I start a post with an address <@ person>, it wouldn't appear in the instance timeline. Seems like a reasonable thing. Also, I'd've sworn I read it worked like that.

The #TwitterMigration definitely feels real to me. There is now way more engagement and things happening over here for me now than on #Twitter. I'm largely done over there now, myself.

Alright, migrated servers to join my #astronomy peeps at astrodon! So here another #introduction after my #twittermigration:
I'm Julia, an #astrophysicist by training! I work at the #VLT at #ESO's #Paranal #Observatory in #Chile. I study the #atmospheres of #exoplanets, formerly I studied Earth's climate. :) The #climatebreakdown is an issue close to my heart, so love #trains, hate #Starlink

I wanted to #migrate to another #instance, after realizing how persistent the overcrowding problem is here at mastodon.social.

But I realized I can't migrate my "toots," when their whole point was to serve as a reference.

I don't want to repost all of them on another instance that I am not fully satisfied with anyway (and might want to similarly migrate off of eventually).

Seems like my best option is to just ride it out... The #Twittermigration is bound to end eventually, right?

twitter is feeling more and more like a job, while this place rhymes emotionally with the corner coffeehouse with the wandering cat or perhaps the chatty section in a vast and beautiful library. #TwitterMigration

Well, #TwitterMigration is interesting. Want to find out how to make this platform work. How do I find people on other servers? Who is here on mastadon.sfba? Seems like a lot of people are on Mastadon.social, which is now filled up. Help. Which way is up?
