I wonder if the #TwitterMigration deluge is still going strong? #Fediadmin people, is it subsiding a bit perhaps?
@rysiek@mstdn.social @tek@freeradical.zone @kev@fosstodon.org @stux@mstdn.social slowed down yesterday but still very high.
@thatonecalculator @kev @tek @rysiek
Just hit 91020 local users
@thatonecalculator Haha noo, 3 or 4 days
@stux insane. maybe it's time to close registrations on mstdn.social, push people towards smaller instances?
@rysiek @stux @thatonecalculator @kev @tek get people here, then figure out how to redistribute after they land.
@vmstan oh sure. Still, I appreciate that mastodon.social registrations are closed. It's nice to help spread the load.
@rysiek @stux @thatonecalculator @kev @tek did that happen recently?
@vmstan @rysiek @stux @thatonecalculator @kev I'm on the fence. The other side is that getting new people onto mastodon.social, showing them that particular view of the fediverse, then nudging them onto a different instance isn't a great experience.
@tek I think the way m.s. handles this right now is pretty okay. I would like if it redirected to a fedi instance finder, not specifically masto instance finder, but it's still fine.
@rysiek@mstdn.social @tek@freeradical.zone @vmstan@vmst.io @stux@mstdn.social @kev@fosstodon.org the only problem is starting on Mastodon practically locks you into Mastodon, because migration doesnt work cross-software. If more people could be introduced to instances running different software earlier, that would help out instance diversification a lot.
@thatonecalculator does Pleroma or MissKey have any account migration feature/system at all? Honest question, I simply do not know.
I can’t find such feature for migrating FROM pleroma with soapbox FE, just import and aka options
@thatonecalculator right. Well then.
