       It looks like some issues may arise if/when an instance’s domain name changes. Is there any way we can change federation so that we don’t need to rely on such a central point of failure?

       Yes, domain names can be replaced with cryptographic identifiers: https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/ef61/fep-ef61.md

       How interesting. Isn't the did: system also what AT Protocol (Bluesky) uses? 👀

       Thanks. This is a little complicated to wrap my head around. Is this already implemented and we just have to toggle it, or is this something that needs a special/unreleased version of lemmy in order to activate?

       I doubt that it will be implemented in Lemmy, the application architecture needs to be different in order to support cryptographic identities.But there are other implementations (they are listed near the end of the document).
