@darch@neotxt.dk this got me to thinking–since twt is a text-based format, it should be relatively straightforward to merge the history from one account into another. I haven’t thought through the implications of that for threads/yarns or whatever, but at least at the level of the data format it’s almost trivial to do. I wonder if that’s something to explore?

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Actually it wouldn’t change any of the hashes at all. The old Twts from the previous feed’s URI would still remain in-tact. In the case of Yarn.social pods running yarnd, they are also archived, the search engine running at search.twtxt.net running yarns would also have indexed them already. Merging an old feed of yours from a different feed URI to a new one would have no impact whatsoever.

The only noticeable thing you would see at all is all of a sudden (assuming you followed the old feed and new feed) you would see otherwise identical replies to some “root” that looks like its from two different identifies (feeds)
