I am thinking about moving to avoid taxes for selling my primary home that I’ve owned for less than a year. Has anyone done that before?

How would moving help?
I think you will owe the cap gains tax in any case

Has your home appreciated more than 250k in a year? That’s when cap gains taxes kick in

No they kick in for any gain. The 250k is just the exemption amount if you lived in it as a primary residence for at least 2 of the last 5 years or something.
