I believe there is already plans in the timeline to bring Tumblr to the fediverse.

Their static website hosting is probably the best in the business. We seriously need some competition though.

The only device running Snap in my house is a Raspberry Pi running the Snap Nextcloud and it’s rock solid.

This might be a deployment issue. How are most people running it?

The knitting and writing crowd seems to be quite big but that might just be my feed. That’s something to keep in mind, different communities are on here, you just might not have found them yet.

The solution for capitalism-out-of-control is not more capitalism. The less big money players in the fediverse the better.

It’s weird that everyone keeps looking at this thru the eyes of capitalism. We don’t need neck-break-speed feature updates, we don’t need to appease our shareholders. If one platform grows on the Fediverse the others don’t get “left in the dust”.

We’re not in competition, we are a community.

Running a solution like Wiregaurd + VPS or Tailscale is probably your best solution. It’ll be transparent for you and won’t set off any red flags for the network.

I’ve run tailscale on a cellular home internet platform as well a shared one like you have and it was slick.

Look, on Mastodon you have to pick a server. That’s just too hard to do.

That’s why email never took off.

That’s the Neat Part, You Don’t.

Remember a homelab can be anything from multiple rack mounts humming along in your basement to just SBC running some clever Podman containers. Everyone’s wants, needs, and interests are different.

Sounds like most of what you want to do could be done with one or two machines, a decent switch, and some kind of Wi-Fi access point. There is no wrong or right way to do it.

It’s open source and it’s free to use. Anything can sound bad when you just make shit up.

These are natural growing pains of any new platform. A lot of people will come over, check it out, and then go back to Reddit.

Liftoff is pretty slick, tho.

Linux too.

Le Potato aka Libre Computer is still on Amazon in the US for $35.
