It will be good when there is an easy way to back up and restore your subs, your blocks and possibly even your comments. If you wish to change instances, it should be easy.

This would be great. I get the value of having instances be separated but starting over is a real pain.

Maybe something about account creation: create the account only for this instance or create it for all/select number of instances? Even something like 5-10 instances “holding onto” your account could prevent things from disappearing without warning unless something really bad went down.

Spitballing here, since my understanding of how this works is ehhhhhhhhh…
