This could also be the gateway into instance transference. If the instances are more in-sync, it will be easier to transfer either a user account or a community.
Indeed, does it not make sense in a fediverse where you can forward or change your account to another instance a community, be it called magazine or lemmy can change instance as well.
It would also be a protection.
Already now we are seeing some instances of lemmy's / magazines growing larger than others e.g. selfhosted on lemmy.world vs lemmy.ml
Image in a year time if the largest of the communities would suddenly drop out (database corruption, server takedown, admin issue) again all the knowledge / posts are again lost and difficult to recover.
Or does it already work that way and I'm still not really grasping this hole fediverse thing?
