What Hacker News says?
Yes, which is already the case with every app you use. But like I explain in the second half of https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45471337 , you’d still be able to restore your account from a backup to a different host without losing reach or breaking any links. See also https://blog.muni.town/atproto-isnt-what-you-think/ which goes into more detail on the consequences of this approach.

HN discussionWeird is very cheap to host so we’ve already covered hosting costs with our first batch of early adopters: https://blog.muni.town/selling-dreams/ The extended version of Weird that we’re building now however will include community hosting ranging between $10/$100 per month as part of a B2B play as opposed to the B2C model of Weird as-is, so that.

HN discussionHey, one of the two cofounders here. Very cool to see Weird on HN, although we had purposefully refrained from posting it ourselves yet since it’s still baking. Weird is essentially gonna be ported over to being the static, persona-first extension of Roomy: https://blog.muni.town/chatty-community-gardens/
