nanode, OK, so I took the leap and spun up my own instance.
I was deliberating whether to go with #Mastodon or #Calckey.
Calckey won.
Why?
Because the Mastodon install was "follow these quick 45 steps in a Terminal".
Which breaks at step 44.
(I am not interested in advice as to how to resolve this, thanks.)Calckey was "run this one script and answer a couple of questions"
Right now, it's just me, all on my lonesome.
I might open it later but at the moment I'm enjoying my own company.
I would appreciate boost to help with federation tho.
Have a great day everyone.
