Instance admins can block whole rogue instances.

This is actually a genius idea on how to continue the protests after the 14th. Even if the blackout won't last longer content creators should post content increasingly elswhere or additionally to reddit somewhere else and increase the viability of a replacement.
Get a portable AC unit. They're noisy but well worth it. Not evaporative cooler, portable AC. And take their suggested square meter cooling coverage and halve it when shopping.
Fair enough. Would it make sense to start publishing some exclusive content elsewhere to see if your fans have an incentive to move?
Or maybe have some discounts only for requests via Mastodon. People still using Twitter would be paying a Twitter tax effectively.
Is that a "subreddits that go private" tracker?
I'm afraid the post might have come off as elitist. That was not my intention.
Look up "markdown syntax" .

Just add a > on the empty lines between paragraphs.
That's why I'm running my own server. Mastodon is much bigger than Lemmy and it does fine with community run servers.
Migrating profiles should be possible at some point in the future, as well and importing and exporting content profiles. Not necessarily comments or posts, but your follows and subscriptions.
Regarding communities themselves, posts and comments, that's much trickier but it's feasible that the Lemmy community will develop a way to:
A) Archive content in such a way that it's read only and requires super low resources to host by interested internet archivists. B) but which is still connected to the fediverse so that the original content authors, after authenticating somehow, can request deletion of specific content
Ideally we'd want to associate each Lemmy account to a unique random public key and sign each post or comment with a secret key that only you know. Maybe your instance can hold the key in encrypted form and deliver it to your browser to decrypt with a simple password so that the user doesn't have to care about any of this. To them it would still be username and password.
Anyways, this would allow you to still authenticate yourself in the far future when your instance no longer exists and request deletion of whatever content you wrote in the past.
Anything you can scale up and down in resources without having to upgrade hard drive space.
You might want to offload storage to some object storage service.
Heck yeah. It's only a matter of time until we see lemmy2.0 or maybe they'll call it rusty?
Current devs did a good job but it's reasonable that people are worried about political stuff when this software handles so much sensitive date. Even if it's open source, I'd be worried the CCP or Russia being at some point involved.
Just get a grow kit. You only have to water them every day for a couple of weeks. Everything else is already done for you.
