    A big difference is that, instead of leaving all content behind because it was only hosted there, you still have a lot of content as only a piece of the federated content disappears (or defederates, or paywalls, w/e)

      Do people seriously not keep copies of their finished work anymore? They just post them and delete the local copy?

        It’s not just about the content posted by individuals though. The community and relationships built on a centralized platform are also at risk to a much greater degree than they would be on federated social media.
