I already knew that #Mastodon allows exporting and importing contacts as .csv files. This is why I moved from #GNUSocial to Mastodon.
I just found out that it also lets you request and download an archive of your toots and uploaded media.
"The exported data will be in #ActivityPub format, readable by any compliant software. You can request an archive every 7 days."
These are extremely useful features for those who have accounts on "other people's" instances.
@tcit is it not a matter of someone building the next piece that facilitates reuse of these archive, such as importing into another instance or a different platform based on ActivityPub? I thought this is good progress.
@lohang Unfortunately you can't do much with this data.
