    I'm reading that it is a bad idea to switch ActivityPub server software on the same domain, it messes up syncing between servers. Is it still a bad idea if there is no intention to maintain followers or posts?

      @iiogama@0x212.com off-hand I can't think of any particular reason it wouldn't work?

      Try it and find out for the rest of us 😈

        It's fine. There are a couple of PieFed servers that used to be Lemmy.

          @iiogama I've read keeping the same signing key is most important, but I've never tried changing software.

            @julian @iiogama mastodon would not refresh the seever keys automatically and drop all posts from the new server until the key is manually refreshed. Β This was an old problem and I don't tested it in the last years.

              If you manage to import the cryptographic keys of all users and the instance actor, then it shouldn't be an issue either way.
