It looks like some issues may arise if/when an instance’s domain name changes. Is there any way we can change federation so that we don’t need to rely on such a central point of failure?

    I almost feel like someone needs to do a write-up of the 196@lemmy.blahaj.zone debacle - while not a 1-for-1 example (it wasn’t a migration attempt that functioned the exact same way as it would with PieFed), it’s a good case study for userbase-community owner-instance dynamics that should be considered, specifically the bit in your last sentence.
