I came here to day this.

Another example: Mastodon.lol, which had 12,000 users literally shutdown a few hours ago. They did manage to give notice but the point remains that people had to move instances, cannot take their posts with them, and it’s a giant PITA, server covenant or not.

To call this stuff a “non-issue” seems incredibly obtuse, especially when the data portability piece is clearly an after thought by the Mastodon devs, and something that ActivityPub would need some major changes to get accomplished. Changes that the project leads have been fairly against implementing.
