Better to have certainty about where the updates are coming. Here's a suggestion I got from a social media professional to whom I talked: 1. Send out notices to the deprecating account (fedora_linux) at least three, two, and one week before the move, encouraging people to follow @fedora. 2. On the day of the move, post a last notice to the deprecated account saying, "Follow us at @fedora." -- Paul W.
