A question about #ActivityPub account migration.
-
I mean, I see no reason why this wouldn't work. `alsoKnownAs` is an array of names.
I suppose if Alice is following both Bob and Chuck, then B & C are merged into Dave, she won't "double follow".
But I wonder if there are any other gotchas?

A question about #ActivityPub account migration.
Is it possible to use it to combine multiple accounts into one?
That is, can I `movedTo` all my old accounts to one new account, and set *several* `alsoKnownAs` on my new account's actor?
You can do separate migrations, one at a time but yeah

Three different #ActivityPub spec guides - three different answers!
FEP-7628 says a Move has an ID, To, & CC.
https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/7628/fep-7628.mdSocialDocs says just an ID, no To nor CC.
https://socialdocs.org/docs/guides/account-migration/#the-move-activitySWICG says no ID, nor To, nor CC.

@Edent yes

@Edent FEP-7628 is the only accurate spec.
Moveactivity should be delivered to followers and have an ID (just like every other activity).SWICG document is incomplete. SocialDocs website appears to be AI-generated.
@silverpill@mitra.social socialdocs looks like Dan's work. If it is AI generated then that is a real disappointment.
