Well, I'm officially running my own #Mastodon instance. Fortunately it's not open for signups, and probably never will be, but it will be a fun adventure regardless. 😂 Now, if @reality2cast gets blocked somewhere it will be for our own words and not anyone else's! 🤞
@katherined @reality2cast Wow, cool, congratulations! Please talk about it in the pod, the start but not the least with experience after a month or two.
@hehemrin @reality2cast I'm sure we will! We did a little in the episode coming out this week. I didn't go the full DIY route because I was trying to make my life easier, so I'm using a managed service with @mastohost. While I do have the right skillset, I don't have the right amount of spare time. :)
@katherined @reality2cast @mastohost @katherined @reality2cast @mastohost A few hours ago in my feed, I saw an alert about instance(s) that were trolls to avoid. Now I have seen similar post, which I just boosted. I have no idea about correctness in those posts. But it got me wonder how I would know about attacks and manage as admin, if I run my own instance.
@hehemrin @reality2cast I’ve wondered the same. I have done some blocking, and people are good about sharing info, but I guess l’ll need to figure this out as I go.
