I'm unable to do that on pixel.infosec.exchange which is the pixelfed instance I'm on. Is there some trick to it or is it just not universally available yet?

We are still missing basic tools, like the ability to import full history from one instance to another. To import posts and comments, not just followers and those we follow, or lists (which often isn't functional as on my current instance). Frankly we should be able to import history from non-fediverse social media too, if one has output files from them. Nobody I'm aware of has built a single tool to help them navigate those histories, let alone import them.

When every platform becomes a walled garden and every API comes at a very high cost among competing platforms, what is the argument for having an internet with those platforms in it? Asking for all my friends.
