Saielle (she/they)I’m wondering if y’all can help me build a community of trans people of colour on the tag #TransPOC as i miss the wonderful people i knew on a different animal themed app.
After seeing reports of racism and bad moderation I guess i’m just trying to find my people. Boosts very welcome.
PA0ETE@intentionaut Have you thought about setting up your own instance (server) for Mastodon? Then you can implement your own guidelines within your own server and moderate accordingly. I have run mine for the last 4,5 years at masto.host for as little as 5 euros per month. Almost never a need to moderate though, in spite of attracting a fair amount of people.
Saielle DaSilva@PA0ETE @intentionaut i’m not a developer
@intentionaut @intentionaut Developer of old fashioned photo's perhaps :)

@intentionaut @PA0ETE @intentionaut as far as i know, you don't need to be a developer or know anything about running "servers" for the hosted option. you just pay money and they run it for you.
@chelming @intentionaut @intentionaut Thst is completely true. This is also how I host wokka.be I host it with https://masto.host which costs me only 5 euros per month. Fully managed, and no limit in data transfer and storage.
@chelming @intentionaut @intentionaut By the way, to give the complete info:
the amount mentioned is without domain name, that I host elsewhere (for 10 euros per year)
