This works okay for migrating followers (only lost 50%), but sadly, it does not migrate your follows

@Gargron

Thanks for making Maston!

As we are all trying to rebuild our networks, it would be super useful to add a #feature where it shows next to a user whether I am already following them so I don’t have to click on the name every time. Thanks!!

I do miss being able to find new people by looking through others’ complete followers/following lists

Is this something baked into @Mastodon or could it be changed?

#introduction

I'm an economist at U. Michigan. I study various topics in corporate finance, usually by estimating the parameters of models. I have also worked on measurement error in linear regressions.

My hobbies are dwindling because I spend a huge chunk of time editing the Journal of Financial Economics, but I like to cook, lift weights, swim, cc-ski, and learn languages.
