MODERATORS
All the users and communities registered there will cease being able to connect to the rest of the network, but the data should still be cached on all the other servers.
The keyword is "cache". Lemmy doesn't guarantee the cache, so if an instance X would go down permanently, you would eventually lose this data.
My presumption was that with over 200 instances, maybe over 1000 in the near future, all the old data should be collectable in theory without loss. But you're right, there's no guarantee of this.
