100% better migration options. I want to take my posts with me, I want people going to my old profile to redirect to my new profile. I feel like I've been stuck on my Mastodon instance, which is very small and is not tended to by the admins a lot, because of the lacking migration functionality.
Mastodon already has that. You can export and import ~~posts~~^[@vidarh@lemmy.world clarified below that you can only import lists, bookmarks, blocks, and mutes. Not posts.] in the settings, and under Account Settings, you can move to a different account so people are redirected to your new profile.
My screenshot doesn't show import as an option because I migrated away from this Mastodon account to Firefish.
Um omg this is amazing news haha! I should have followed the mastodon updates more closely it seems, I had no idea we could do this now. Thanks so much for bringing that to my attention 😀
