Hello.... goodbye (also, could use some migration assistance)


As the Federated Network Association is dissolving
Working on migrating my friendica.feneas.org/profile/alien23 account to:
https://social.trom.tf/profile/alien23

like wise, less some angel swoop into save the day, seems the first and original Diaspora pod (joindiaspora.com) will also be going down and with it my original Diaspora account.

From what I've noticed, when migrating a Friendica account, photos, saved searches, and saved folders get lost. Does anyone know if there is a way to effectively port over saved folders? (tedious as it is, figure settling on manually migrating the rest)

Also, regarding Diaspora migrations, does anyone know if account migration was ever completed, and if so, what all is included in the migration?

Welcome to involuntary migration status. I also lost my original diaspora account to a sudden shut-down. Wish I could help, but I know nothing about saving digital footsteps in this federated world. I hope you find what you need.

The migration "underwhelmingly" worked for me....
Didn't have to re-do the written profile, contacts ported over, and then just about everything else was lost. Posts, saved comments, saved folders, images.....
"Migration" basically just helped speed up re-adding contacts and filling out the written aspects of the profile page.....so while something certainly worked, the vast majority of the account history was lost.
