The mastodon server I joined in 2022 is shutting down permanently. > Please note that Mastodon can move your followers, but it can’t transfer your old posts or uploaded media to your new account. If you want to keep a copy, download an archive. Yeah totally similar to atproto 🙄

Haven’t used this account at all, so I don’t care. Tried to log in, googled “mastodon”, got a login page, didn’t work. It said: > If your account is hosted on a different server, you will not be able to log in here. Great, now I need to know the exact thing I signed up on 4 years ago ...

Found the actual login page thanks to password manager. Followers 0 Following 0 Posts 0 So nothing lost, but a good example of how choosing a server upon signup is terrible and a potentially irreversible decision.
