The issue with moving all the time is my friends will be annoyed. Can we move without making new accounts and rooms again? They'll ask why are we changing it again...you know how it is
The easy solution is to choose someone other than matrix.org, get everyone over there, and hope it works out in the long run
The technical answer is that if you own your domain name you can migrate from a managed solution to a selfhosted one with some caveats. If you can't migrate the database, then some data will be lost (namely, unfederated rooms and local-only data) and your friends will likely need to do a few things (reset their passwords, and export/reimport their encryption keys). Unfortunately there are no database migrator between different server software right now
I see.
The problem is now my friends will be stuck on matrix.org 😬
