Hypothetically, let's say I spun up my own Mastodon instance, and then I registered my own account on it, and then I froze registrations at just me. This way, I'd be hosting my own account but nobody elses'

Is this a really stupid idea? Does it break a bunch of mastodon features? Would it be a giant pain in the ass to run?

@eqdw that's what I'm doing. I know a couple other people who do it too. It's a little complicated to set up, but the only "feature" you really lose is that the federated timeline mostly mirrors your home timeline.
