This is why we need users to spread to more servers and create communities in them. If lemmy.world goes down that shouldn't result in half of lemmyhub disappearing.
Glad I'm realizing this before getting too attached to any one account. Setting up on a few instances now.
There are tools to migrate subs/blocks
Any recommendations? Would love to sync my lemmy.world subs to some other accounts
LASIM worked for me.
Find it and other tools here

Getting attached to any account is not recommended. Hopefully most are pretty set but I know personally if I was too run into financial trouble I would shut it down. Bigger instances do get some amount of patrons who donate to them.
