I鈥檝e complained there needs to be an easier way to move my posts to another ActivityPub platform.
But I鈥檒l shush now after reading about Bluesky鈥檚 data export process. Good gracious.

@box464 Have you seen how others do it here? I thought it was one click like in FireFish
@WeirdWriter On Fedi, many platforms offer an export of your posts and media in folders and JSON/XML files, zipped up. You can recreate all of your posts with these.
Bluesky gives you a single CAR binary file, with no media. It is not human readable. And you'd have to request your media separately.
I assume there's some opensource tools to create bluesky exports in mastodon format, or at least a readable one? Maybe? A quick search show promise.

Private DMs are off protocol yes.
ATProto Migration is a push button process with a number of tools like ATP Airport, PDS mover, etc etc
And unlike Mastodon you don鈥檛 leave your content behind. This is everything and no repointing of followers as they link to your personal DID not a server.
Now that they have private chats I assume those are excluded.
> Note that the export endpoint intentionally does not require authentication: content in a user's repository is public (much like a public website), and anybody can download it from the web.
