@jerry@tinker I've been beating the drum that the fediverse needs a way to decouple a user's identity from their instance for several months now. Something like an mx record or a webfinger, such that they can update their "home instance" pointer to a new instance if/when they need to, and all of their followers could pick up the redirect even in the case of adversarial home instance admin behavior. Obviously you'd still lose your post history etc., but you wouldn't lose your social graph so long as your webfinger stayed around.
