This is the perfect chance to stress that people should choose different homeservers.

But it is hard to trust a random server, if all you know is the name and mean uptime. Mastodon shows the community posts and an introduction by the local admin, before you make an account. Matrix should do the same.

The best way to make it easier for people to choose a homeserver would be to have a complete migration system so that people could easily move their account to a different server if for whatever reason they decide they chose the wrong one.
