Can you explain the migration tools, or lack thereof.

I guess they're talking about migrating your account from an instance to another

[-] themadcodger@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

In the mastodon/Calckey world you can migrate your account on one instance to a new account on a new instance and all the people following you will transfer and automatically follow your new account. So you don't have to be all "Hey moving to [xyz new instance] follow me there!"

That's something that's in the works for kbin and Lemmy some day

I'm curious if that works with unfederated servers or servers that simple just get shutdown. Ie xyz government decides to raid the servers, (is there redundancy in the data?)
