My experience of the #fediverse :

Year 1 (2023):
It feels a little lonely as 99% of my friends stayed on Big Tech platforms.

Year 2 (2024):
I start a blog - #TheFutureIsFederated - to explain the fediverse to "normies"... and I make a lot of new (techie) friends.

Year 3 (2025):
My techie friends encourage me to start self-hosting with #YunoHost... and I do! (GoToSocial, PeerTube, NextCloud...) I LOVE it.

Year 4 (2026):
I plan to buy a Heltec to try out off-grid mesh radio communication 💁‍♀️

@_elena good luck! 😉 It will be just fine! Oh, and yesterday I did install Cockpit on my @yunohost VPS. It's great for system management. https://apps.yunohost.org/app/cockpit Even web terminal works great, and YunoHost SSO works too!
YunoHost app store | Cockpit

@jan ooooh I know of Cockpit and I didn’t know it was available for YunoHost. Thank you for the heads-up Jan!
