To migrate to a new #Mastodon #instance:
1. Find a new server.
You can either use this great #tool by @TheKinrar to help you choose:
instances.social
Or the official tool (with a limited selection):
joinmastodon.org/servers
2. Create a profile on the new #server
3. Next, redirect both #profiles to each other:
.../settings/migration (Move.../Moving...)
4. You can optionally choose to export & import your data: .../settings/export

in reply to Stephie • • •#Mastodon is pretty customizable to offer people many choices not usually available to users on other #socialmedia platforms. More choices also means more complexity ;)
Like on other platforms, you can also choose to simply make a new #account on another #server.
A lot depends on your reason for moving :)
