@MikeRisley I feel so lucky we got invited to be part of that episode!!! It was super fun.

@gravedigger good point! i know enough folks in the board game sphere that are looking for a game-centric home that I was thinking about a broader (but not huge) picture.

@gravedigger I've considered that many times. I'm more worried about the time and effort to properly moderate than the cost... but I've definitely mulled it.

@BeardedRogue THAT'S a whole different issue. Finding a secondary or tertiary instance that's a reasonable fit... oof.

@BeardedRogue absolutely. i completely get why this instances mods keep a pretty tight lock on servers. I'm definitely not complaining about that. But I also don't judge my friends who went to mastodon.social (I have friends on an art server that's blocked too) and would like to stay connected to them.
