Just bought an RPi 5 for use as a server.
Gonna put XMPP on it and invite my family.
Gotta get a more reliable router as well though.

Do you intend to get something OpenWRT-compatible?
Also, what about Permombler? You have to host your own Permöller to maintain presence on both sides of the Fedi!

We're getting fibre now that my grandma's on Signal (long story). I hope the router they give us will do everything I want it to, either by installing a custom OS or otherwise.

That's actually a good idea. Maybe I can make some friends with the normal people on the other side. Hopefully the zealots on the other side won't cancel me for bullshit reasons, or, if they cancel me for good reasons, I can effectively apologise and sort it all out.

TBH only today I learned that your instance can't federate with MastoSoc 🤪

Yeah we're pretty blocked. A lot of that is my fault though. I have said some edgy things.

@Hyolobrika
Well, some people are just too fediblock-happy — it's like they are searching for the n-word or something like that in threads they would never encounter the natural way and proceed not with just blocking the person who posted something offensive, but with blocking the instance AND telling the admin of every instance they federate with to defederate them 🤯

I have to admit, I see such crowd less nowadays — they have probably left for Bull Skype

Maybe they adopted whitelist federation like people have told them to.
