is anyone still actively working on #nomadicidentity for the fediverse?

I imagine you have a secret key for your account which is stored on your laptop (or bitwarden), not the server. Then when you want to migrate your account to another instance, you can use this secret key to re-create your account on the new server. The new server makes requests to the servers of all the people that were following you, telling them to follow your new account on the new server.

Basically server migration as I think it works now, but not requiring the consent of the server you were migrating away from.

Something like this would bring one of my favorite parts of scuttlebutt, to the fediverse. I think if implemented well, without making anything more confusing.

I saw a thread about it here that was related too... about what a .mbox file would like for the fediverse
