okay, fedizens, which web app/interface should I try to use with my @gotosocial instance since @pinafore is unmaintained?
8 Feb 2025, 05:32:32 [original]so, fedizens, I need your ideas: I want to migrate permanently from this Mastodon account to my new @gotosocial account at @cairobraga@gts.cairobraga.com, but I would like to at least try to migrate my posts in some way or form.
I can think of boosting posts from this account in the new one, but would those boosts survive if I ever take this instance offline for good?
I can also think of manually and contextually re-posting toots from this account in the new one, but that sounds extremely laborious and might be confusing to my followers.
is there any other way I could go about this that doesn't involve waiting patiently for the day when fediverse platform devs will finally implement an organic and native way of migrating whole accounts, including posts? any suggestions?
I thank you in advance!

10 Feb 2025, 17:49:23 [original]in this very moment I'm importing my posts from @cairobraga@queer.party to @cairobraga@gts.cairobraga.com using #slurp by @vyr as a kinda test. yesterday I imported the emojos, which went almost smoothly, despite a few hiccups and some manual solutions I had to make for them to be surpassed.
this post backdating feature inaugurated in the latest @gotosocial release is a big game-change-starter for ActivityPub and Fediverse platforms in general. one can only hope that @Gargron and the #Mastodon dev team finally solve this huge missed feature in their software.
a big thank you to the whole #GoToSocial team, to Vyr specially for being so attentive and lovely in her replies to me.
OK, gonna freeze this account and try to do the next step in my permanent move to my #GoToSocial instance and profile: @cairobraga@gts.cairobraga.com
see y'all over there!
