@Geri@veganism.social
I just checked FediTips, have you tried manually exporting / importing follows & followers?
I don't know if it's automatic like Misskey.
@aral@mastodon.ar.al @david_chisnall@infosec.exchange@AnguaDelphine @aral @david_chisnall you cannot manually export followers but ty for your offer of help xx

Everybody hates me

Big fat juicy ones
Long thin skinny ones
See how they wiggle & squirm... -
@Geri
There's a fair chance that quite a few of your followers weren't active accounts anyway. A lot of people seem to try the Fediverse for a few weeks and then give up, because it requires you to actually think.@dave possibly but then there are others such as @BigTittyBimbo who definitely is live
I had to unfollow her and follow her again so she went oh I better follow Geri

That's interesting. You may know that I have a 'backup' account on mendeddrum.org, and that was just importing the following and followers list, then waiting for people to accept.
I hope you find all of 'your people' again!

You're welcome.
I had heard Masto is a pain at migration.
Sorry that won't work.

Hi there!
Is the old account still there? I had the same problem and the migration stopped after just a few followers.
BUT! You can re-initiate the migration after a 30 days waiting period as described in this article: https://fedi.tips/transferring-your-mastodon-account-to-another-server/I got everyone back in the second run. Wish you luck!

You can't do it before, unfortunately. There'll be a little hint that says that 30 days haven't passed yet.
The waiting and not knowing is atrocious, I know.
