    Interesting, I hadn’t heard of that. Does everyone who’s following the old account automatically refollow you when you do that?

    IMO it’d still be useful to be able to use an identity you control, like a domain name. I’ll have to find those proposals you mentioned.

      It doesn’t port over any old comments/posts, but I’m pretty sure that when anyone @'s you, it’s forwarded to the new account.

      Mastodon already does this
