4. Restoration
If you can come back, you can't leave. All "social" media platforms depend on users being fearful of losing what they have accumulated. The platform lock-in is not achieved by taking your data prisoner, but by renedering it useless if your take it with you. On YellowNotes you can delete and walk away, and come back and resume where you left off. With some limitations(*)

Your Subscrbers are simmilary not yours exclusively, they are shared agreements between the subscribers and you as the topic owner. Subscriberships are NOT restored to your topics. Only the topics themselves and the Yellownotes they contain.
