Why do the instances keep going down? It makes me think that this is not a reliable social network, but the alternatives are not as good.

Email does that too. It's even worse, you can make "support@microsoft.com" show up but it's really badguy@somewhereelse.com. Granted, many emails hosts are getting better at flagging these, but one can still click the name to confirm on Kbin or Lemmy.
