       Of course. I now realize I also signed up on ruby.social in 2018. Ugh. Okay. Time to decide where to land.

       @johnathayde same. I used to have the alias pointing from ruby.social to mastodon.xyz but I recently inverted that

       @johnathayde I think it’s supposed to migrate people. I’m not sure if it worked but I also only had a dozen followers before the move. But I believe it _should_

       @johnathayde @james migrating instances should move followers, right?

       @saturnflyer @johnathayde "Moving your account is the same as redirecting your account, but it will also irreversibly force everyone to unfollow your current account and follow your new account, if their software supports the Move activity. Your toots will not be moved, due to technical limitations. There is also a very heavy cooldown period in which you cannot migrate again, so be very careful before using this option!"https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/moving/

       @james @saturnflyer @johnathayde Oh, when the posts are not moved, then "moving your account" just means "keeping your followers on a different instance"?While that's not bad, it's a bit disappointing to lose all history e. g. in the case the instance shuts down.
