Folks worrying about instances just up and shutting down because someone got in over their head don't understand how many BBSes I opened and closed over the years.
It'll happen. It's not the end of the world. It does suck. It doesn't suck forever unless you give up.
If an instance you're on closes shop, you can and will find another if you want one. Go easy on the poor soul who had to end a dream.
@djsundog maybe a handy script for backing up your posts and follows?
@rabcyr definitely want to look at an easy-to-use bundle of user data like that
@rabcyr now you get me thinking about it, every user has an Atom feed, wonder if your personal one has /all/ your toots
