How to migrate 2.5 million local activities from Mastodon -> Pleroma on a live site. Yes, I’m still on this. Taking it slowly now:

Shut off Mastodon
Migrate only users, follows, blocks, mutes, lists, filters, apps, and tokens.
Start up the Pleroma server! Your users can get online. Incredible.
While the new Pleroma server is running, migrate votes, thread mutes, likes, and finally statuses.

This seems like a good balance for letting users get back on as quickly as possible. Old posts will then begin to start appearing.

The only downside I see to this is the chaos of 1 million posts filling everyone’s timelines, drowning any new posts out until it’s over. I suppose I could make them unlisted or something but that’s not a great solution either. It would be a one-time thing anyway.

Someone please explain the recent trend of incessantly saying the b word in the beginning of a rap song as an ad lib?

NEWS UPDATE: New York Times used to be possible without your help.
@wjmaggos @realcaseyrollins discussing the fediverse without it being about abuse? Unheard of.

On Sunday, I discussed the #fediverse, rap, popular culture, the Christian lifestyle and much more with @realcaseyrollins. Live again this week at 9pm CST.
