@markrprior @maegul @atomicpoet Once you’ve seen Emoji reactions and the parallel world you’re missing out on, it feels restricting to go back. CalcKey is promising to let me transfer all my posts as well (with different URLs, but that’s another issue the Fediverse as a whole needs to address).
The main reason why I can't move from my current #Pleroma installation to anything else ( #Akkoma, #Misskey, #Calckey, #Hubzilla or #Friendica ) is that none of them accept importing an existing backup from a different service into a brand-new account.

@MetalSamurai @csolisr @maegul @markrprior The timeline flooding problem with post imports can be solved if users are put on silence while they undergo the process.
A bigger problem is that when you have a critical mass of users, all trying to import their posts, this becomes incredibly taxing on the server.
An easier way to fix it: if the original date of the post is earlier than, say, a day or two before today’s date, then the notification should be ignored.
