I’ve got a few questions from this then:
Does this mean one account on any kbin instance, one account for peertube, one for mastodon? 3 accounts? Can I have one account across services?
If l self-host each of these services and have it locked to just me, and then post from my own server instance to other instances, who stores that post data? Does it reside on my server? If I shut it down, do my posts disappear or show [deleted] like Reddit did? If the posts remain because they’re also stored by the other instance, what happens if both are shut down?
