Idea: if you mod a community on a lemmy.somewhere you should be able to migrate it to lemmy.elsewhere which would include all post & comment links being forwarded and subbed users having their subscription updated to reflect the new location.
I’m aware this would be a way down the road as user account migration alone is still not great but it would be a great feature for the fediverse to have to avoid centralisation and mod/server admin wars.
I don’t use mastodon. Do users need to reciprocate? So if I followed you and you moved server would I still get a notification, or only if you follow me?
Can anyone follow you, so does the notification let you know that it’s a change, rather than a new follower.

It is all automatic.
You maintain the same relationship after the move.
If you just followed them, but they didn’t follow you — that continues after the move.
If they just followed you, but you didn’t follow them — that continues after the move.
If you followed each other — that continues after the move.
It is all automatic.

As a user, if someone who follows you moves their account, you see that as a new follow in your notifications.
