Could you run a Kbin or Lemmy instance that was not live all of the time and not break federation (self.fediverse)

If you ran Lemmy or kbin locally as a single user instance with no hosted communities and it was not live all of the time would you miss a lot pushed data? Would this data be pulled later? Would this cause de-federation?

I assume you suggest DynDNS because most people's home IP address does not stay static. My home IP has stayed the same for over 3 years. I guess there could be a security concern if the IP changed and another computer assumes my domain name, but that could be changed pretty quick.

As long as you were aware that it happened when it happened.
