What does it take to facilitate this? Do individuals have the ability to help it along, or does it take more resources? I'm new to this but would like to learn.

You just have to (encourage others to) register on an instance with less than, say, 1000 active users. I think that's already taking care of most of the issue.

Yes and another thing that also doesn't help is that Mastodon currently does not (yet) support migrating over previously posted content. So if you migrate from one server to another, your old profile does show "user migrated to X", but I think people are a bit afraid to leave their old posts behind.
