I think I will quit trying to self host a #Fediverse instance. It's certainly something I want to do eventually, but it's becoming clear that learning how to install the software takes far more time than I have.
Eventually, perhaps I'll get some sort of cloud hosting/service to do it for me and then download the image? 🤷🏾♂️
But I really don't have the time to dig into that, I'm too employed and have too many other interests 😅

@realcaseyrollins If you can't host a Fedi instance you should try twtxt. It's an ultra-minimalist decentralized microblogging network. It's just a text file containing your profile and statuses. That's it. You can even host it on a static website. People follow you via twtxt clients, just like an RSS feed.
This is cool! I’ll have to give it a try sometime this week!
@realcaseyrollins There is also a web front-end for twtxt called Yarn if you want a more traditional experience. It still uses twtxt in the background. With how simple the twtxt format is, it's much easier to implement than activity pub.
