@gossithedog @molly0xfff I believe you lose all your previous posts & replies. Which may be a plus for some.

@gossithedog @molly0xfff @kennwhite not her fault (loosing the posts). As far as I know posts are NOT being transferred when you migrate and this can be a bad thing in some cases (imagine you are transferring because the old instance is shutting down).

@andreagrandi @molly0xfff @kennwhite yes, it doesn't transfer posts by design, and it doesn't work if the instance is shut down.

@gossithedog @andreagrandi @molly0xfff @kennwhite There's definitely a ton of opportunity for stuff to be done. I believe @Gargron posted just how many things have been reported since the spike, although I'm not entirely sure.
