I don't feel that comfortable with Mastodon's decentralised concept. While the servers are decentralised accounts are tied to one server.
Who's behind a server, how commited they are to continue their service: Nobody knows. (Except for mastodon.social itself.)
With server-specific accounts, one's in the hands of the admins: When they decide to stop, the accounts' accumulated social capital is gone.
I'd love to have accounts you can migrate from one server to another without losing connections.

Mein Unbehagen am dezentralen Mastodon-Ansatz: Dezentral sind die Server, wer dahintersteckt, wie ernst die es meinen: Völlig intransparent außer mastodon.social selbst.
Die User-Accounts sind fest an Instanzen getackert, geht der Server, geht das soziale Kapital eines Accounts verloren.
Mein Wunsch: Über Instanzen migrierbare eindeutige Accounts, unabhängig von einer festen Instanz.
