I made the choice of hosting some Fediverse software on a domain name I own, however that piece of software (Akkoma, upgraded from Pleroma) has since become unacceptably unstable, and I'd like to switch to something else. I read that if I'm already federating with other servers, I shouldn't switch software on the same domain because that would cause issues, but like, surely those servers will stop trying to reach mine if it's down for a while… There is documentation on how to fully uninstall the instance I'm running, which means deleting users and their posts, after which, could taking the server down for a while work?

Oh, ok. It's Akkoma (upgraded/migrated from Pleroma). I just thought that by actually specifying that, I was going to get XY Problem'd by people (how to fix it etc.).
