For example I would selfhost Mastodon with [email protected] but then decide to change the server software to GoToSocial but keep the same [email protected]. Would everyone who was following [email protected] keep me in their follower list or would whole fediverse crash?

while I don't know the answer to the question, I am very certain that

or would whole fediverse crash

is not it; if that could make the whole fediverse crash, someone could do it maliciously. At most it will cause problems delivering your messages or delivering messages to you.
