I would really love if this became an option, since I’m planning on making my own instance. I’d like to keep my subscriptions, posts, comments and bookmarks and migrating would be something great. What do you think?

    Yeah. A better way to describe Mastodon “migration” would be to call it account linking, or account forwarding. Each time you make a new account on a different instance you leave behind directions to the current one. Kind of like migrating your email account and leaving the old address to “forward” stuff to the new one.

    I agree that it’s a much cleaner system than attempting to actually move content around.
