@kainoa Reminda me of the old search engine aggregators. The ones where you typed your search and it would open several tabs of different search engine results.

@girlonthenet I would add "On the fediverse, which Mastodon is part of, you can have your blog fully integrated within the Fediverse. The geniuses that follow you on Mastodon can comment on your blog, from mastodon, and you can comment from your blog and it will appear on the mastodon. My blog is fully integrated within the fediverse now, and I love it. I achieved this by accident, but now that I set it up I really like it. My blog isn't an island in a sea of distractions anymore.

@taylorlorenz @PopCrave Good luck, with a more moral employer.

@Gargron mastodon doesn’t have a user base of 2 billion. Mastodon is a success. Threads is a farce.

@Mastodon Europe's answer: NIMBY. ;-)

@Gargron It's good when we think this, on our daily bike rides, walks and more.

@Gargron Google, because it loves to kill everything that a niche of people love.

@dansup @pixelfed If you would like I could create a secondary account and play with my archive. It's around 3 gigabytes, so a good stress tesst. I would need to request my archive first.

@dansup @pixelfed Ship now, and allow for multiple imports later. I would make it abundantly clear though, that they should back up their existing data first, in case it goes wrong. When I played with instagram archive import I used a clean wordpress account, before taking the risk of ruining my existing blog.
Adding subsequent updates can be rolled out at a later date.

@pixelfed https://www.main-vision.com/richard/blog/how-to-migrate-from-instagram-to-wordpress/ How I did it in 2020 from Json to CSV and from CSV into Wordpress. I didn't have the knowledge that I have now. Now I could be more effective.

@pixelfed A few years ago I figured out how to import from the instagram export files, to Wordpress. I spent two days on it but eventually it worked. Are you able to do it via the API? I did it by download, and upload because I couldn't get an API key at the time.
