    I feel like a bunch of trolls would abuse account migration tools by instance hopping before they get banned.

      If their posts are deleted I don’t see this being any worse than the same troll just making two different accounts

        I thought the point of migrating an account here would be to automatically migrate the post history too.

          Yeah but wouldn’t a removed post not show in the history anyway? Genuine question, I don’t post a lot and haven’t had any removed lol

            I suppose I mean they’d account hop before they got caught and their posts removed.

            Also, plenty of instances would like to restrict it. Ie I doubt lemmy.blahaj would really appreciate lemmy.world accounts hopping over.
