Did it in a similar way. I used:

sudo cp -rp

to keep permissions also. Worked like a charm.

You could host your own instance, that way you’re completely in control. I’m also doing that, just because I don’t want people(mods, owners) to decide for me who I interact with or not.

Can you explain why you think that?

If you can, contribute to the code. You can do a pull request if you want.

Gotcha. Thanks for sharing. We’ll see what happens with Snap. I mostly use APT anyway. I had some few cases of Snap where it even wouldn’t update itself.

Why PopOS and why isn’t Ubuntu great lately? Did I miss something?

But all the other federated instances will have an duplicate of certain posts/comments, right?

And I’ll salute you from my instance 🫡

Elon is helping people to move towards Mastedon and Lemmy.

Thanks Elon.

He is a Dutchie, that must be why.

What a weird way to pronounce that…

Indeed. It’s getting better and better. Which means people are posting better quality stuff over here. “He who shall not be named” feels now a little weird when visiting it.

It feels old.

The owner of the instance can re-assign moderators.
