Sounds pretty fun! I have a spare laptop running Linux Mint. I would like to try running my own instance and sharing it with a few users. Below are the specs. Do you think it will be powerful enough, and if so, how many users would it be able to handle?
Dell Inspiron 15-5000
CPU: Intel Core i5-5200U, 2 cores, 4 threads
RAM: 8GB
Storage: SanDisk SSD Plus 1TB
those are the admins of one instance. if you don't like them, you can join another or create your own
apparently, and I know next to nothing about this, you can use an automated option via Ansible.
would Pixelfed be a working alternative for hosting image files, then linking over?
I'm really getting into the whole Fediverse and trying to limit use of for-profit proprietary services. FOSS or death!

yep, I had a similar train of thought
[spez] screwed up so bad, and it's obvious he's quite stupid...I'm wondering if he was given the Ellen Poa treatment. The investor's knew what changes they wanted to implement to increase revenue, had him implement it, then made him take all the flak. Next, they'll replace spez with someone else, seemingly roll back a few of the changes, and say they're working with the reddit community. The thing is that it's obvious that reddit is irreparably infected. The diseases cannot be eradicated because the disease is corporate greed. Reddit began its time in hospice the moment they shared they were going public. It's over. Done. Say you final goodbyes. RIP in pieces.

spez is a straight up narcissist that uses the same playbook as the rest. it's so evident with the gaslighting, blame-shifting, and smear campaign. at this point, anything he says should be understood to be a tactical play in gaining control by seeming powerful, "on your side," or requiring pity as a victim. his mind is deranged, so he has no other capacity.
Blame-shifting is a tenet of narcissism. They can't be grandiose and entitled without it.
"Swallow all your morals. They're a poor man's quality." - spez, probably
Serious question: Since it's a federated system that is open-source, what do their political views have to do with supporting the platform? Even if they decide to become Neo-Nazis and change it, the rest of use can continue to use the work they've made thus far and keep it like it is or improve on it. Our use of it doesn't support their political aspirations either aside from their beliefs in federated social media.
