Hi!

I am recently trying to move from xtex@fe.disroot.org to xtex@wikis.world.

However, when I attempt to submit "Move Account" on https://fe.disroot.org/settings/migration, the API always responds "Invalid password". I tried to logout and login again, and that verified that my password is correct. I also tried to reset password using user.disroot.org but it changed nothing.

What password should I type here?

I've just tested it without the password issue: I can set any password, I don't have the message, even if the password is wrong!

The issue I got is "Account migration failed.".

@muppeth when I go to https://fe.disroot.org/api/pleroma/move_account I get "Not implemented" whereas it should be as I see that it exists in api https://docs.akkoma.dev/stable/development/API/pleroma_api/#apipleromamove_account

I could not test in pulga (the mangane frontend), the migration option doesn't exist there for some reason.

Also, shouldn't https://fe.disroot.org/api/pleroma/move_account be https://fe.disroot.org/api/v1/pleroma/move_account ? I see that in https://docs.akkoma.dev/stable/development/API/pleroma_api/:

The /api/v1/pleroma/* path is backwards compatible with /api/pleroma/* (/api/pleroma/* will be deprecated in the future).

Keep in mind that move an Akkoma account to a Mastodon instance is quite problematic. There are some issues on Mastodon side to read the Akkoma code or something and the workaround as far as I remember is pretty tricky.

@meaz I also got "Account migration failed." from the web page, and "Invalid password." came from the response of https://fe.disroot.org/api/pleroma/move_account .

I also can see the "Move Account" option on the mangane frontend.

I was hoping that the recent update would magically fix this, but it hasn't :) Any idea @muppeth ?
