It occurs to me that once an instance is federating, and especially if follow relationships are established, that renaming an instance (e.g. changing domain names, etc.) is not advisable.
Are there any established best practices, or am I destined to lose all of my followers?
Perhaps maybe as:Move for every actor, though that requires that both source and destination instances be live.
