A related question I have had is: can you transfer communities you have created to another instance? I’m sure the answer is no.
I’ve been very happy with lemmy.world, but I will be stopping my donations and finding another instance if it federates with Threads.

Nothing. They will exist as long as the instance exists.

You can appoint a new mod yourself before leaving, or your own account from a different instance. But if you are the only mod when you delete the account then yes. Instance admins can still apoint someone else though.

If you want you can test it yourself, there are 3 test instances separated from live ones, links in this post: https://lemmy.world/post/335015
How do you appoint new mods though? I don’t see a menu to moderate the communities I created.
It’s part of the context menu on each post/comment in the community, there’s an option to appoint them as mod
So you gotta make a post or comment before you can become a moderator
Technically, there’s instance admins. But I don’t know.

GDPR only applies to companies with 250+ employees.

Sorry I answered a bit out of context. Right to Erasure applies no matter the size, it’s the processing of the data records that only applies to companies with 250+ employees.
And Lemmy is GDPR compliant now as if a post/comment is deleted it is removed within 30 days. But it falls down to each instance that federates to process those delete requests. But deleting your account doesn’t delate the content you generated not does it claim to do so.

They will likely disappear.
