 tools are all pretty simple. Not a lot of moving parts, not always the most user friendly. etc. Well, I thought I would talk about that a bit. It's not complete laziness, although that is a bit of it. It takes a lot of energy to create great software for free, and I'll be the first to tell you that. Not being spiteful, just honest. I am extremely blessed to be able to do that and help others. It brings me a lot of joy to be able to help others out and make a change in the world for the better. Even if it's a small one. But there is a price to the work.
I keep these tools simple with the idea of less moving parts, less logic, and less just general UI moving around means less to break and easier to test. For example [pdsmoover.com](https://pdsmoover.com) is just one long form you fill out. Doesn't really hold your hand or do a ton of checks like, is it actually a PDS, is that handle available, selectable domain endings, does it require an invite code, and etc. Instead, it fails and give yous an error if one of those edge cases are met. All of that is accessible, and there are other migration tools out there like [atpairport.com](https://atpairport.com/) and[ tektite.cc](https://tektite.cc/) that do a fantastic job of integrating that which ends up providing a much cleaner user experience.
Well why don't I integrate that into PDS MOOver? Well, when I created the tool I took a look around at everything offered and the one tool I used with the most success and everyone recommended was the [goat](https://whtwnd.com/bnewbold.net/3lj7jmt2ct72r) cli. But it wasn't without it's faults (minor and still a goat of a cli tool). 1, a higher level of entry with it being a cli tool. 2, a lot of times the PLC token you entered at the start would be expired by the time it uploaded all your data to the new account. I thought, what if there was a similar tool like goat, but it was more accessible to end users.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rnpkyqnmsw4ipey6eotbdnnf/bafkreibdwxvvulcaltch425lbsqjq46vsbatxmshzmfbbcvhjytu7qb3ui)
