If anybody wants to move their Mastodon account out of a US server, they can make a new account on a new server and move their existing followers and settings

But not your post history, because (checks notes) Mastodon decided porting past posts is scary

@GossiTheDog "Mastodon" really needs to get cracking on full data portability, IMHO.

It's a shame this hasn't been pushed higher up on the list of things to do.

I think many people have invested quite a bit of time and effort into their posts and profiles, and moving all that data, or somehow managing a switch-over doesn't seem to be that simple, if at all possible.
