Summary
Aloft servers are a great way to continue playthroughs with larger-than-expected groups of friends, as users can carry over any progress directly to the server world. While characters retain progress regardless of what world they are in, worlds can have varying islands and custom buildings that are difficult to give up. Fortunately, players can migrate all world saves onto a server; however, players who wish to maintain a Private playthrough should remove their server from the lobby browser.
