If an instance is down, accessing communities (lemmy.ml)

When an instance is down, I am wondering what to do in regards to accessing my communities. Sure I can make accounts on various instances and just sub to the same stuff on all of them for backups, but is there a less grindy way to manage that?

I think that's a question for the entirety of the ActivityPub fediverse, honestly, haha. The safest bet is probably running your own instance but that doesn't solve the problem of other communities disappearing when their main instance goes down.

I've been looking at standing up an instance of peertube and I'm considering the same issues there.
