so, @Ayespy when you say "merge," you mean "redirect" or "create an alias," right? Merging is not an option in the mastodon documentation provided by @pafflick

Ayespy

@charleslaughlin First you need to have two accounts (as you do now) and then you need to create an alias and then you can migrate from the old account to the new. What this does is redirect anyone looking for your old account to the new one add the old account data to the new account, in effect, a merger.

Sorry if I'm asking too many questions, but since this is a redirect and I am in effect "moving" from my former instance (zirk.us) to vivaldi, does that mean I would no longer belong to my old instance, so that, for example, what comes up in my "local" feed will be vivaldi only, or both?

Ayespy

@charleslaughlin I'm not familiar enough with how Mastodon works to answer that . Sorry.

On the above link that @Ayespy provided, it describes what occurs when an account is moved from one instance to another.

iOS is in TestFlight - limited distribution. Android, in many different flavors (phone, tablet, four different kinds of automotive) is the fully-released family of Mobile OSes.
