  • I run my own Lemmy instance that’s just me and a few close friends. I federate with who I want so I can follow the communities I want and it always works fine. Big instances defederate from each other, but I’m federated with both and so (so far) totally unaffected. I never have to make new accounts.

    I DO pay about $25 a month in hosting fees, plus do the server maintenance work for these privileges. It’s a price I am HAPPY to pay.

    I didn’t really use Twitter and I don’t use Mastodon (I get SO frustrated by character limits and don’t really want to spend my time on shallow conversation in metered soundbytes), so that part doesn’t really impact me either.
