>> I'd be more interested in this if they supported #Soapbox or even just #Pleroma
And I just got some info -- a new account followed my new muensterland.social account (SOON to be my Main -- @rgx ) .
And on visiting his/hers profile I found this :

Hey! I'm Ilja! I'm admin and moderator of this instance, cyborg, and general waste of space, but trying to fix the latter. This is a single-user instance running on YUNoHost ( http://yunohost.org/ ), the most awesome OS for self-hosting and I strongly advise to try it out if you want to self-host. Whether you're a newbie (like I was) or an advanced sysadmin who just wants to get things done.

So -- YUNOHost is a valid, Pleroma friendly host service!
Will add this to an upcoming Blog post.
Ilja is at : https://ilja.space/users/ilja
>> 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 ❤️
@absturztaube ohh haha no! they moved from here to their own instance
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.
>> 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.
I've moved over to @realcaseyrollins for my private account
This is literally just here to archive my old posts now
