The lack of an account migration idiom on Mastodon really is fatal, it is sincerely a thing that keeps me from recommending Mastodon to people. The http://witches.town evaporation to me was kind of like a disproof of the fediverse and I feel like maybe the fediverse dev community should have treated it as such.

Hi everyone, I'm happy to announce that I have founded a VR game studio, in collaboration with luminous beings who appear above my bed at night. For the forseeable future I'm going to be working on making ~~something incredible~~ for VR fulltime.
The studio is named Mermaid Heavy Industries, and you can find the website at https://mermaid.industries . I'll be posting preview media at this account: @mermaidindustries and RTing it here.
I hope that I am able to show you something incredible.
