So what am I looking at? Is it this? https://github.com/EmissarySocial/bandwagon

Is the transfer feature specific to Bandwagon, or is to the underlying platform, Emissary? https://github.com/EmissarySocial/emissary

I wonder how well it works for Lemmy. Emissary has some Mastodon-specific features, but apparently no Lemmy-specific ones.

Crazy stuff!

But how is it moved? It copies the activities? Or really transfers them somehow?

They mention SWICG's data portability spec, I assume they're referring to LOLA: https://swicg.github.io/activitypub-data-portability/lola
