Update: Ukraine News from home.social didn't get that account migrated but is now posting again as @Ukrainenews

If you were following before, you can pick it up again there.

Update. I've been scrolling through my posting display weekly and waiting to see what happens when this new server finally clears its cache.

All boosts off home.social are gone plus all the lingering follows to/from home.social.

So that answers the question. Even if you keep them active, boosting/bookmarking your posts is a temporary fix. Physically moving them from X to Y with MCM is the only way to actually save them.

Yesterday I saw people trying to lure naive Twitter users onto their "protest" instances W/O explaining the meta defederation plans up front.

That's ... deeply uncool behavior. IMHO.

Home.social peeps especially: you're keeping track of your current admin's plan, right?

You likely can't migrate directly to/from gated communities. Or see anyone outside them.

Don't lose all your stuff a second time. Start making decisions now.

I've been distracted for the past few weeks, so I fell behind with keeping an eye on the hashtag. If anyone else has spotted someone who needs boosting, point me! :ablobcatheart:

@deano I'm so sorry to hear this. I was very attached to that instance as well. The majority of the people I was following were and I'll boost in case some of them were following you there.

Home.social note.

For anyone who was following midwestmonster, he didn't get his account info migrated. Now located here: @MidwestMonster

I'm kind of upset that shut down. I didn't even know it did until two days after, and my timeline wouldn't load for hours. I will have to rebuild my Mastadon from scratch... but it convinced me to purchase a domain and do it on my own (well, through masto.host). The VPS is on my Birtcertificat stands for Very Special Person. I feel like the dot ink is like my little place to publish things and play some.

I think I've mentioned this to a couple of people? The small icon looked like a megaphone.

I spotted it in May on my account's Home page, somewhere in the upper right area (web interface).

I didn't ordinarily spent a lot of time on that page. At the time, I was scrolling that page to pick old posts to boost onto ohai.social.

Maybe someone else has a better memory of what it looked like.

@anotherwest Such a shame. I know that between them, @monkey and @bumble have been trying to help people before shutdown

Sadly we said goodbye to the Mastodon server 'home.social' yesterday. The users were given a few months notice to move, and hopefully have. Hopefully anyone you followed there has given you notice of their new location.

The posts of anyone you followed there will remain here for a short period on your timeline but will eventually be purged.

I procrastinated until the last day but I finally did the account migration off of home.social. Seemed pretty painless.

Not that I’m a super heavy user though, so even if something didn’t move over right, I probably won’t even notice.

Anyways. Hi from the new account, everyone! 👋

Merkwürdig: home.social macht heute 23.59h zu und manche Leute haben es anscheinend noch nicht mitbekommen.

Current queue:
Newsletter: 0 (5 out!)
Articles: 3 (in clean-up)
GS paperwork: Still haven't started, boo.

Had some articles to return this morning (newsletter swung back into action, yay), which meant I perforce got a late start on dropping home.social warnings (sorry, sorry).

I lost count, and I'm certain I accidentally skipped people. Best I can do on my own while also trying to get my work done here. :blobcatreading:

Bye all, this was fun while it lasted. As a final update, I met my boyfriend at that party I went to in this building. He’s great, as is the treehouse and skyline views. 🏡👋

Now cruising the Local feed, tackling the corporate and organization accounts, and trying to flag down the individuals who appear to be unaware the server's closing. This is not good.

Seriously. If people want Mastodon in general to attract more users, they ought to make a *minimum* effort to help those who are already here. IMHO.

The instance is shutting down tomorrow. (16 June)
We're here if you need a new account.

There's an awesome Mastodon content moving tool by @tokyo_0 which will take copies of your old posts over to the new server. You MUST run it while home.social is alive, so be quick.

It's command line, which can't be daunting for some, but we're here to help anyone.
