@craignewmark @wired The "culture shifts" is what concerns me the most. People leaving Twitter because of the culture issues there only to bring Twitter culture into Mastodon with them. Instead of being open to something new there are some that want to repeat the same mistakes of the past. Not all Twitter features need to be Mastodon features.

Hopefully federation and open source will give us the tools #birdsite never had. For exemple, I’m seriously considering running my own tiny instance with family members and some friends. That way moderation and control stays the way I like it.
And if it all goes belly up, someone will fork it.
(Hopefully that won’t be necessary)

Thanks for sharing!!
I think a lot of people will go that route in the near future.
@fssofdeath @bryanruby @craignewmark @wired Running a small one for family has been on my mind too. I saved this guide ages ago and it might be useful: https://runyourown.social/
