Subject: [PATCH] Mastodom=>Pleroma migration
Mastodon was far too much load on my server. And while the sever is
just a dinky like 1-vCPU VPS, it shouldn't _need_ any more than that; I
barely use Mastodon and I will not upgrade my server (and incur greater
costs for it).
Pleroma is compatible with Mastodon (based on ActivityPub) and much more
efficient. We'll see how I like it. My account transfer is happening
right now; the fediverse is a wonderful thing. :)
For some more context: Mastodon was fine for years, but after Musk's
takeover of Twitter and increased adoption of Mastodon, my sever became
burdened by all these new instances, despite _my_ use of it being
effectively nothing.
