Exactly. I'm deciding between these two - I am not impressed at all on how this was handled, and I have already decided that I am not going to be loyal to this instance. Half contemplating migrating everything and screwing off honestly, but I am scared of my new smaller home instance disappearing into the void, bringing my entire account with it, which is why I chose lemmy.world. to begin with. Is that a thing that might happen?
Possibly.
You should look for middle sized instances. Those are not as big as lemmy.world so they're less likely to have to do this kind of stuff, but also big and steady enough that they're not likely to randomly disappear one day.
