It would have been great to have you, but the beauty of the fediverse is we can connect anyway.
QOTO has a ton of features though and one that maybe be of use to people who are considering moving is our timeline/instance subscription. You can effectively bring the local timeline of a foreign instance into your account. so you can set it up so a column locally on QOTO is a reflection of the local timeline on the instance you are coming from. This helps make you feel likeyou havent lost anything by moving.
@freemo Thank you for your prompt response. I wish I'd know about you all sooner. Oh well, I like it here at hcommons.social but I will keep qoto.org in mind for colleagues who align to STEM, etc.
Well, @DianMo , I hope that works for you. Best of luck! If you need help making the move, don't hesitate to ask. I haven't gotten around to writing a tutorial for transferring to another instance, but it's fairly straightforward.
