I've updated the guide on how to transfer your Mastodon account from one server to another:

➡ https://fedi.tips/transferring-your-mastodon-account-to-another-server

It now has an additional step where you switch off email notifications for new followers on the account you're moving to.

Apparently some people have been receiving lots of email notifications for new followers when they've transferred followers over. For some reason no one has raised this issue before, but it seems to have happened to a number of people.

In the "how to choose a new server to migrate to" section, I would recommend opening the server's global feed to see what posts are federated to it (i.e. what accounts people on that server follow) and local feed to see what people on that server post as a vibe check.
