They are features that will inevitably materialise sooner or later. Mastodon already has tools to accommodate this need, and lemmy runs on the same protocol. No reason the same need won’t eventually be met. Both kbin and lemmy are very new. Mastodon has been a thing for a while now, in comparison.
I tried doing a Mastodon user migration (to a Pleroma instance), and it basically just didn’t’ work. This is one of those thing where the code is likely to rot from lack of testing.
User migration as well as community migration in case of instances going into a black hole would indeed be useful features.

But if everyone can access this feature someone will inevitably do a DDoS.
And community list will be a mess.
Why would you let everyone access the feature? This would be an admin/owner feature.
… That a flaw in my thinking, I didn’t thought much.
