I hope I never have to rely on my Mastodon instance in an emergency because given the state of my Sidekiq queue, I’d likely have been dead for several hours before anyone even hears my cry for help :)

(I say this with a smile but it’s actually really quite concerning that I can’t rely on it being real-time. Going to have to see what I can do about it. Can’t really afford to spend more than the ~€50/month I’m spending on my instance of one and my posts are routinely delayed by hours these days.)

I recall migrating having worked since at least 2019, at least concerning followers/followed accounts, but maybe that was just doing the GDPR data export in the Mastodon instance and importing it into the Pleroma instance. Not sure about this one though, since I did it so long ago.
