Hello there, it was fun to have my own Mastodon server but the costs were getting crazy. So I'm here now !
@Bluewall My own journey exactly ๐Ÿ˜…
@Bluewall welcome! and I can appreciate that :)
@jerry Thank you ! I'm doing my part, joined the Patreon :) 
@Bluewall Welcome! I'm still thinking about hosting my own instance on my home server but I just don't find it worth the trouble. So far, I'd rather hop now and then if my instance has a problem. We'll see, it's cool that the option exists though!

@Bluewall Out of curiosity, were you self-hosting or using a managed service? And if you don't mind asking, what were you paying (and was it a single-user instance)?

You couldn't ask for a better place to live your Fedi-life then infosec.exchange, but for me, I love the little perks of my cozy instance ๐Ÿงก
