Right now Yunohost users don't have control over their data, which means they aren't free of leaving a particular Yunohost instance. This is also related to Framasoft (framasoft users aren't free to easily export/migrate their data to other solutions)
In the long-term, we should definitely imagine mechanisms to allow, without any interaction with the admin, a single user to migrate from one Yunohost instance to an other instance (ideally : to migrate to any other self-hosting solution).
