Migrating your account to Sakurajima Mastodon

Migrating your account to Sakurajima Mastodon

These steps will show you how to migrate your account to Sakurajima Mastodon.

You must have an account on Sakurajima Mastodon (sakurajima.moe) first. Before proceeding, create and login to your account first. If you don't have one, create one here.

Note: You cannot move an account from a server that is on the suspension list (as a result of violating our TOS)

Why Sakurajima Mastodon​

1. It's Japanese media/culture fandom and creator focused
2. Better moderation than the big instance
3. Anime themed emojis and more
4. Content discoverable to otherJapanese media fans.
5. A local timeline that is more useful.

Notes Before Migrating​

  1. You need to reimport your ignore list, filters, and lists after migrating.
  2. You cannot move back to your old account for 30 days. On Misskey/Firefish/Sharkey, your old account becomes unusable after migration. If you want to move back, you need to create a new account.
  3. Import your follow liist first to make the migration easier.
  4. You cannot move your old posts from your old account.
