Toot

A reminder that if you're considering moving instances due to recent policy changes on #Threads, and would like to take your content with you as well as your social connections, #MastodonContentMover exists 👉 https://mastodoncontentmover.github.io/

It's not perfect. My hope when creating it was that the #Mastodon team would see the need for such portability and build in comparable functionality. Despite years of requests, that hasn't happened (feel free to add your voice): https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/12423

@tokyo_0 and another reminder that people don't need to move instances, each user can individually block a whole server (just like I did)

@andreagrandi You just blocked yourself from seeing what's on the whole server. You didn't block them from seeing you.

In principle, if the block worked the way most people understand the word "block", what you're saying would work. But it also fundamentally undermines the way the fediverse is intended to remain healthy—which is for admins to care about the interests of their users, and problem instances to be isolated.

It's also irrelevant to people's need to be able to move their content.
