User data needs to be exportable and importable somewhere else.

If anything, I would say user data should be a lot more perishable than it is. Original content, answers to questions that don't need to be answered again with a good search system, those are nice to preserve, but every word from every conversation ever?

I was meaning things like subscriptions and preferences. Not posts and votes.

Sure, like a config file to export and import.
