How much of a good idea is to have my own instance just to have my account? (lemmy.one)

I'm thinking about deploying my own instance where I'd be the only user and most probable I won't have any communities.
The only thing there will be my account to interact with as many other instances as I want.

What would be de pros and cons of having my account like this?
Would it be harder to interact with other instances in some way?

It's not outdated because the intance it's on is down anyway. And i think (but I'm not sure) if you comment, the comment would go to the other online instances EG. beehaw/lemmy.one but when the instance the community was hosted on came back they wouldn't see the comments unless they explicitly searched for the comment id.
Again, I'm not sure but thats my guess. But either way you can still read the old comments. If reddit went down you couldn't even look at existing comments.
Sorry if formatting is weird, jerboa keeps deleting my spaces for some reason.
