@admin @expertmanofficial It takes cooperation between the two servers to give the green light to set up the redirect and to tell the followers' servers (not the humans) to resubscribe at the new destination.

Mastodon, Pleroma and maybe something more can participate in this exchange, Friendica cannot, so it's a half-move.

We're used to it, because this is how we've done it for over a decade, but we have to admit that it's neater to have the machines do it for us rather than chatting with our fellow humans to let them know they should do it.
