📣 I'm moving the FediTips account to another server.

The new address to follow is:

➡️ @FediTips@social.growyourown.services

I'm just about to start the automatic migration procedure, so it should move your follow over to the new account seamlessly, but if you want to follow the new account manually straight away you can do so (it won't mess anything up).

The new server is my own one, it's where FediFollows, FediVideo etc are already.

If there are any problems, contact my personal account at @FediThing

You may want to let people know that if they see a requested to follow notification, they should cancel it and try again to an auto follow. I was stuck in requested no-man’s land.

For people on #Friendica and other platforms not compatible with the account migration procedure, you need to follow @Fedi.Tips 🎄 manually if you were following the previous FediTips account. On mobile it works like this: Long tap the blue @-address in the above sentence, wait for the popup, then click the follow icon. If the popup doesn't appear (often with new accounts), copy the @-address to search on the top of the page, including both @'s, then click Search twice with a few seconds between. You can follow on the profile page that appears, and set any groups you want the account to be in.

Yes, indeed! Really good point!

if you're following from a platform other than Mastodon, do a manual follow of the new account.

Would the mute or block options help? I see them right here in my Mastodon client, so they look pretty easy to use.

I've been meaning to look this up, but what is the difference between mute and block anyway?

Also, how do I set up filters in the Mastodon clients?

Finally, and I'm new to Mastodon, but couldn't you just not follow people who's posting you don't like?

Looks like auto migration worked. I was already following the new account when I went to check. Thanks for all you do!

It should work now, there was a freak bug on Vivaldi.net that blocked some newer accounts. The bug has since been fixed, so please follow me at @FediTips@social.growyourown.services
