    Not quite right there. The comments exist on all the other federated servers as they’re sent out as part of the ActivityPub protocol. The problem is there will no longer be an easy way to aggregate them. Posts may disappear. But comments won’t.

      There is no backfill mechanism. Only the servers online and federated at the time of posting will have the content. New servers will not. If you move to a new server it won’t have your old content
