IzzyOnDroid ✅ @IzzyOnDroid@mastodon.technology

You might know me from my website, my F-Droid repo or my Birdie account - all going by the same name as this one. Being a privacy and open source advocate, I decided to let the birds fly an make different noises: replace tweet by trööt, ahem, toot. Currently I'm making myself familiar with my new virtual home here at Mastodon, so please don't expect a toot-flood straight away. Transition will take a little time, so please bear with me. Hug-toots, Izzy.

🇺🇸 OK folks, initiating the final step of migration to @IzzyOnDroid@floss.social – if you do not yet follow me there but do here, you should automatically "come along". If not, please come over!

🇩🇪 Ich leite jetzt den finalen Schritt meiner Account-Migration ein. Wer mir noch nicht auf floss.social folgt aber hier, sollte automatisch mitkommen (falls nicht, folgt bitte selbst dort)

Wish me luck all works well!

@ashfurrow 😿 Thanks for all, and all the best for you! See you "there" then 🙏

Looks like my Mastodon data export (done via "settings › export" here with the WebIF) does not include my DMs. Did I miss something? Anyone an idea how to get them before I'm closing doors?

🇺🇸 (2/2) My new home is waiting for me, and looks similarly homey (Thanks, @downey!). Still, I will miss my first Fediverse home: It's been a great time here, thank you for everything, @ashfurrow! And I wish you all the best (especially the best for you & your loved ones). Glad we can stay in touch!

The moving truck is just around the corner, I'll be taking the final step shortly. See you again as @IzzyOnDroid@floss.social - some of my followers are already there

🇺🇸 (1/1) The bags are packed and I look back a bit wistfully: I made my first Fediverse steps at m.t. @ashfurrow was not the "strict admin & moderator", but rather a "godfather & friend": Thank you very much for offering me a virtual home for more than 4 years, where I could feel very comfortable and safe!

🇩🇪 (2/2) Mein neues Zuhause wartet auf mich & schaut ähnlich heimelig aus (Danke, @downey!). Dennoch werde ich mein erstes Fediverse-Heim vermissen: Es war eine schöne Zeit hier, Danke Dir für alles, @ashfurrow! Ich wünsche Dir alles erdenklich Gute (insbesondere das Beste für Dich & Deine Lieben). Schön, dass wir in Kontakt bleiben können!

Der Umzugswagen steht vor der Tür, bald werde ich den letzten Schritt einleiten. Wir sehen uns dort wieder – einige meiner Follower sind schon da

🇩🇪 (1/2) Die Koffer sind gepackt und ich blicke ein wenig wehmütig zurück: Ich machte meine ersten Fediverse-Schritte bei m.t. @ashfurrow war nicht der "strenge Admin & Moderator", sondern eher ein "Pate & Freund": Hab ganz herzlichen Dank, dass Du mir über mehr als 4 Jahre ein virtuelles Zuhause geboten hast, in dem ich mich sehr wohl und geborgen fühlen konnte!

For all those migrating theirMastodon accounts to a different server: If you import bookmarks, make sure they are all a) valid and b) public. If just one of them cannot be reached, the entire import fails.

Just tested for you. After I removed those which were gone (server no longer reachable, 404 etc) and those which were private (to the original account) I finally succeeded importing all remaining bookmarks.
