very seriously considering starting up my own glitch-soc instance on unstable.systems

if I *did*, would anyone want an account there? would try to find a decent server to host it on, though probably in EU because all the relatively affordable dedicated servers seem to be European (would probably just go Hetzner unless anyone's got a good alternative)

(asking this is dangerous, because probably all it'll take to convince me is one person saying "yeah, I'd take an account there")

@demize heh- I -would- have, but I just started setting up my own instance before I saw this and I already bought the domain an everything

@rabbit I mean, the less excuse I have to run one the better, it makes it that much less likely I'll bother :p

@rabbit (though at this point I think I'm just *looking* for an excuse, so...)

@demize I skipped right past that and decided to just embrace that I like building things

@rabbit usually I do too--hell, the reason I own unstable.systems at all is because I ran a barely-used IRC network on it for no reason other than I wanted to

@demize OK I got lazy and after looking at VPS prices it seems there are some competitive hosted Mastodon options so I went with one of those. It actually went faster than I was expecting so I’ll have to migrate later tonight but it’s already up and running

@rabbit yeah, I saw one of those boosted onto my timeline yesterday, was very tempted to just do it

but I *do* need to host my website somehow, once it's actually made, so I might as well bundle it together with glitch-soc if I'm actually gonna run a glitch-soc
