    you can have all the backups you want but you’ll have lost your @gmail.com email. Same with your lemmy account, if the host goes away you’ve lost your account

    If I practically end up keeping my account at the end of lemm.ee, and all that changes is that my username goes from Comment105@lemm.ee to Comment105@lemmy.world, I think that would be a perfectly good result for a lemmy backup system.

      What do you mean by “keeping your account”? Someone else might own Comment105@lemmy.world. You can download the data from your account, but that data will live in the fediverse anyway
