Migrating Mastodon to Pleroma (programming.dev)

I currently host a single-user Mastodon server for myself but it's on a very small VPS and I'm wanting to migrate to Pleroma because it's more lightweight. Is there any way to transfer my Mastodon account to Pleroma without doing the standard migration since I have the Mastodon database for my instance? This is so all my posts are preserved and there won't be a broken redirect because I'll be shutting down the Mastodon after Pleroma is up.

Ahhh thank you, by the looks of the thread you linked it seems that there's no way of doing it without manually copying database tables over. I did think that may be the case, so I'll just migrate it the normal way then. Thanks for the help!
