If so, should I edit all my posts/comments and update them to generic hosting links?
I’ll use postimages.org in the future to prevent something like this from happening again.
I would say use ai to generate you a script that download all the images in the instance

Shouldn’t they be federated permanently with other instances?

This depends on the settings of the other instance. Some instances copy images, others don’t.

No. If you look at the URL of any meme community, its hosted on the instance of the OP, not your instance.

Yea but the posts stille exist on any other instance that was federated with OPs, right?
