   @luis_in_brief Off the cuff I think it's only Pleroma (?) and Misskey fork CalcKey (?) that support migrating follows and followers over from Mastodon and I can't say how well it works.
   
   An admin cannot migrate an instance off Mastodon and onto something else and if you switch cold turkey and retain the same domain you'll have federation issues because the keys changed.

     A thing I don’t fully follow: why is everyone so wrapped up in the specifics of Mastodon’s implementation? Is import/export of someone’s stuff so painful that switching implementations is awful? And if so, how did we end up in that bad situation?
