moxie said nobodys ever gonna run their own servers
that prompted a lot of pushback on fedi, just have to make it easy to do so
but also floated around this time was the idea of "community hosting"
and that stuck with me and is really resonating, i want to reexamine all my projects with that in mind,
- how to design towards federation
- it's good actually if you "don't scale" because you want to limit the size of each instance
who coined this?

in reply to program jiggler • •Both servers are only open to members of the LUG, but since we're all a herd of nerds some of us are also running other servers for family and non-nerd friends.
And of course on our servers there are people who would never be able to run their own server, that's why we run it for them. And there are other people who don't have the time or skill to run a server, but are perfectly able to admin their own server on some service like masto.host.
