Hosting an instance just for yourself?

Hello, with the spicy beehaw drama I was wondering, would it be possible to selfhost a lemmy instance literally just for yourseelf and no one else to like, circumvent any defederation shenanigans? As all instances federate per default, this should work right?...

Lol that's a big yikes. Glad I never managed to make an account over at beehaw.

It was simply a moderation issue, the two instances in question were giving them a lot of moderation work, and lacking Mastodon's "limit" option they decided to just defederate them until things settle down a bit, remember that this is all volunteers in their spare time, not employees of a corporation

What is the "limit" option?
