The fact that this is the top comment sends a funny message about the Lemmy community as a whole.

Where does it say that you need one?

Since both services store your notes as markdown files on your disk, you can just move your files over. When spinning up a docker container, you likely defined a path for your SilverBullet space. If not, try creating a note and see if you can find it on your disk.
According to PCGamingWiki, the game does have Steam DRM. It was available DRM-free on GOG.

Your instance will still exist, and federation should continue as normal if you manage to reclaim the original domain.
If you have to switch to a new one, however, federation will be very awkward. Other instances will essentially treat you as a brand-new instance, and mirrors of old content will be “orphaned” and no longer sync.

This will not change unless the free labor ceases.
Except you don’t own it forever, as ISOmorph already explained.
Is Steam competing with Microsoft’s “Netflix but with games” service?

Well, you’re here seemingly not realizing why studios don’t give a shit about preservation. As we can observe in the real world, the branding opportunities and PR are not worth it to them 99% of the time.

I can’t get to my point if you keep skirting around it.
How will you get profit-driven studios to care about preservation?

You didn’t answer my first question, and misunderstood the second.
Who do you expect to do the preserving? And how will you get them to do it?

More effort by whom? And how do we incentivize it?

Then what do we do with these games? How do we discourage live service games?
Are you boycotting them?

I’m differentiating between products like Pokemon and services like Nintendo running servers that let you trade Pokemon.
Both should ideally be preserved of course, but today’s reality is that it’s much less feasible with the aforementioned services.
How can we change that?

If you think it’s not a lost cause, then tell us what we can do!
How do we convince politicians to turn this into a law? The same politicians that don’t understand technology and still think that FPS games breed terrorists. Once it’s a law, how do we make sure it’s enforced worldwide?
Do not lump me in with the consumers that created this future. I am already preserving what I can. I am the weird kid in the corner who advocates for DRM-free games on GOG and gets called crazy for having a 16TB hard drive full of offline backup installers. I legally back up what I can, and obtain what I can’t. I play Warframe and other live service games knowing well that they’ll be gone one day, unless someone manages to hack together a private server. I can’t help but still enjoy some of them.
Being a hoarder and advocating for game preservation in front of average Joes is thankless and exhausting. I can’t help but stare reality in the face. You seem to know the situation a lot better than me, so tell me, what else should I be doing?
