helder simao<p>A quick update on this: ended up trying the account migration embedded in Pixelfed. Followed the instructions and received a positive message on the current account, stating that the request was successful. More than 12h later all my followers have disappeared from the current account, but have yet to show up on the new account 😅. One of the help pages states that it can take up to 24h, so let's wait a bit longer and see.... <br><a href="https://masto.pt/tags/Pixelfed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Pixelfed</span></a> <a href="https://masto.pt/tags/accountmigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>accountmigration</span></a></p>
