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.
Are you sure? I mean, the only mod acccount is deleted. account whic created some posts and comments there is deleted. And everything will stay as is?
I am sure.
They will likely disappear.
