I’m just curious, since I tend to get attached to my accounts but I also like having access to all information so I don’t want to use a defederated instance. If, say, kbin got overrun by bad actors and was defederated by everyone else, is the only option to jump ship? Unfortunately I don’t have the capability to selfhost or I would to avoid such problems.
What are your contingency plans if such a thing occurs?

By default all instances communicate with each other if people subscribe from one to another. If one instance doesn’t want to talk to another instance for one reason or another, they can block it (defederate from it) and this stops the traffic between them.
