   #observation : data portability has gone from bad to worse as far as !GNUSocial is concerned. Previously it used to issue some sort of a "backup" file even though I failed to use it in any meaningful way such as importing to another instance. Now it doesn't work at all. I get no file when I click on the backup link here on !quitterno and also on #gnusocialno I know it has never been a priority in GNUSocial. But right now we got more and more users usingpublic sites. Making user data portable it important. Even #Twitter offers this, even though you cannot migrate that data to any other server, you can open and view your #Twitter updates locally in a browser.
