I’m asking in general but also in terms of privacy. Is it worse that you’re more easily connected to your real identity through owning the domain?

Yeah, no migration available, which is a potty but that would be quite difficult to do it right.

Sad, but, yeah, that is more than understandable, the whole database migration alone would be a massive headache to get right, I think.
