Yeah, it's not my instance that I'm worried about, but rather the instance where a community gets built that I value. I can donate to a couple, but not all instances. I am worried about the long term stability of the platform if Communities are at risk. Are there ways to migrate a community between instances if one instance becomes nonviable or is operated by someone/people who aren't in it anymore.
It seems like the horizontal scaling is great, but what I'm worried about is the vertical.
I don't think you can migrate communities yet but at least the content isn't lost if an instance goes down because it's cached on all federated instances.
