MODERATORS
Me, who didn't join one of the huge instances, instead hosting his own instance: "Why is everyone complaining? Lol."
This is the 3rd time I've seen someone mention they run their own instance. The other two specifically mentioned how it was for just them, and I'm wondering what the benefit is going that extra mile for just yourself. Is it worth it? Or is it simply a case of "because I fucking can?" 🤔
I am part of a team that runs an instance for financial discussion, specifically related to direct registration of securities.
For us, the benefit is additional control over the resiliency and transparency of the server and moderation style.
You don't need to worry about being defederated unless the instance is whitelist only (or you're an ass).
Does the instance itself hold a record or database of content posted, too? Like, could a personal instance be used to archive your own posts and comments, even if made on another instance through your personal one's account? That right there would be motivation to play with it for me. Well, that and the "because I can" thing.
As long as a user on your instance is subscribed to all the communities you comment on they should federate as far as I understand. Ask someone more knowledgeable before spinning one up though.
