@glassbottommeg well, should that go wrong, I have both my archives downloaded, so I can probably just message people who didn't show up in the next day or so
I'm going to be migrating this account over to
@aeva tonight. Wish me luck (:
The instructions look easy enough? Back up my stuff, merge my following list over on the new account, hit the move action, and then I guess fix up anything that went wrong after.

Take your information and do what you want with it.
@grimpunch I think that's probably the best way to do it
Also I guess I have jitters about migrating while both servers are under such high load, but idk how to gauge when it would be safe.
Also now that the mastodon.gamedev.place instance is really popping off, I'm starting to feel like maybe randomly posting only half of my cool stuff here vs there is not so great an idea anyway.
I was kind of hoping that the split would be useful by enabling people to only follow my gamedev stuff or only follow my non-gamedev stuff, but I feel that didn't really work out in practice because my projects often don't fit cleanly on only one side of that divide.
I'm considering merging this account into my mastodon.gamedev.place account. I mostly have it this way right now because I didn't realize that I could just post off topic stuff as unlisted, and because the gamedev instance used to be so low traffic that I was worried posting too much would annoy people.
