Imo backend FOSS needs a complete rethink with an easy way to manage one's own digital stewardship. I've lost a ton of data to FOSS projects (masto, lemmy, etc) just because the random host I chose decided to close up shop. Not particularly the fault of the software vendor per sae, and while I do not wish to hassle with hosting my own entire instance I'd be happy paying for or hosting my own data.
