For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

Sure, but here’s the thing. If we all just moved to another centralized system, we’d just be setting the timer for the next heartbreak. It’s a matter of when, not if.
Lemmy’s growth will be slow. It may even stagnate. But, unlike Orkut, Friendster, Google+, etc. it can’t be taken away from us. lemmy.ml might even shut down, but the Fediverse will always be here in one form or another.
what does it mean for people signed up on that instance?
will there be an headless profile floating around the fediverse or does it simply being deleted when the instance deletes?
I think the latter based on the comments I’ve read… But I’m far from knowledgeable about it.
