There is none, except for server mirrors. But most admins don't bother with that. The ultimate solution is to host your own instance. You can do that because the source is available.
But what's the solution to investors dumping reddit, Elon running X into the ground, etc? Not only is there not one, but Reddit hasn't been open source for years, and the only thing that's been opened with X is its recommendation algorithm.
Your own instant doesn't solve anything.
It does somehow, because you are responsible for keeping it online
So what do you propose exactly? That everyone just moves to your own instance? That won't work.
I'm not talking about users, but communities.
In summary, if you really want to make sure that your communities are well managed, host them on your own instance.
Yeah, that's the problem :)
