>> Yeah they only support vanilla #Mastodon, I thought

And that is so poor, slow, trembles if compared to the alternatives.

My "Pleroma as an Alternative to Mastodon" blog page, only a couple of days old, is high up on my stats -- 2nd place and moving up!

BTW -- Today's blog is hot read too.

@absturztaube ahh i see! yes it is! the fedi is getting bigger and bigger that way ❤️

@stux thats what i meant by "spawned a new instance" its nice when your users are heading out to create their own places. could experience that a bunch of times

@absturztaube ohh haha no! they moved from here to their own instance

@alex

Looking forward to it -- too many people just use it as the easiest way to get a flahsy new mastodon and impress their friends.

(even if Hugo and his staff are doing all the hosting, installation, config and day to day backups, etc).

He's competent, and a valuable service for those less inclined to look under the hood.

But No Glitch-Social or Pleroma instances are offered there, I think.

@alex

>> Read their terms of service.

Will do, but I had an inquiry about raising the damned 500 characters max toot limit in one of his instance, and itt was declined.

Too much work to be doing it manually, every time Eugen releases a revised version -- and he insists on burrying this limit in not one, but many locations in various source code files.

At this point, I gave up on mastodon, and moved to Glitch-Social and Pleroma.

@realcaseyrollins @rgx @rgx @design_RG @alex pretty much this.

@waltercool sure, though for those who can it leaves more power to the user themselves, they become the king of their own kingdom.

@milo @realcaseyrollins @alex @design_RG @rgx @rgx I do self-hosting, but we can't expect everything from regular users.

freespeechextremist.com?

@waltercool @design_RG @realcaseyrollins @rgx @rgx I'm working on it. Wait until November

Avoid masto.host like the plague, run your own on a neutral-ish VPS at the least.
