Is it possible to move to another domain? (atosoul.zapto.org)

I'm curious if I can migrate my instance (a single user) to a different domain? Right now I'm on a free DNS from no-ip but I might get a prettier paid domain name sometime.

I think it would need to be a mechanism similar to how user moves are handled where the old thing sticks around forever but has a field that says "the new one is over here" and then the new one has a field that says "yes, I am the same as that old one". At least I think that's how e.g. mastodon handles moves of users (just the person/actor, not any of their content. AFAIK nothing in the fediverse can do something like this with anything other than a person/actor at the moment)
