Do you happen to know if that's something the devs are working towards? I assume it's possible bc Mastodon can and they're both based on AP. I think the ability to switch instances and preserve your history would be a big draw to people.
I particularly don't know about developments in this feature, but it's definitely a welcome one. Maybe having a local (or maybe on a registered email) periodic backup of your comments, upvotes, joined communities and saved topics, and being able to export and import it would be the most viable solution for instance hopping.
