to demote a user from admin to normal user.
Refer to the [great official documentation](https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/) for more information on GoToSocial.
## Migrate an existing instance
The following assumes you want to migrate from `serverA` to `serverB` (managed by mash) but you just cave to adjust the copy commands if you are on the same server.
Stop the initial instance on `serverA`
```bash
serverA$ systemctl stop gotosocial
```
Dump the database (depending on your existing setup you might have to adjust this)
```
serverA$ pg_dump gotosocial > latest.sql
```
Copy the files to the new server
```bash
serverA$ rsync -av -e "ssh" latest.sql root@serverB:/mash/gotosocial/
serverA$ rsync -av -e "ssh" data/* root@serverB:/mash/gotosocial/data/
```
Install (but don't start) the service and database on the server.
```bash
yourPC$ ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=install-all
yourPC$ just run-tags import-postgres --extra-vars=server_path_postgres_dump=/mash/gotosocial/latest.sql --extra-vars=postgres_default_import_database=mash-gotosocial
```
Start the services on the new server
```bash
yourPC$ ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=install-all
```
Done 🥳
