The @pixelfed account danger zone, soon with account migration support!

Wondering if I should limit migrations to Pixelfed servers, or allow Mastodon/Firefish 🤔

@Gargron @pixelfed I'm adding Move (Account migration) to Pixelfed, would it even work with a Mastodon account (assuming I added the alsoKnownAs)?

@Gargron @pixelfed Oh I meant like does Mastodon check the software type or anything, good to know!

@dansup @Gargron @pixelfed I’ve wanted to move my #Pixelfed account to another pixelfed server, so this is awesome for me! Thank you!! If only for that reason, this is a wonderful improvement. 😊

@dansup @pixelfed I think Pixelfed -> Mastodon could be a genuine path for some to take. In any case, things operating by standards are great. So if you can make it Mastodon compatible I don't see why not.

That being said, I don't like that all the "old" stuff is on your old Mastodon server and you're starting fresh on a new server. I'd much rather content come with me too. So if that's a possibility I'd much prefer that.
