@annika if you're looking for something to do with the spare space: https://www.google.com/amp/s/datapub.cdlib.org/2017/03/02/ensuring-research-data/amp/
krypteiaPlease be patient with those that don't understand "federation" the way you do.
To geeks federation means a world of endless possibilities. Don't like something? Roll your own instance and change it.
For non-geeks, federations quite reasonably means something different. It's a world of fixed possibilities and limited tools to discover/explore those possibilities.
Both views are valid and as people develop tools to lower the barriers to instance creation/discovery the divide will lessen.
@aircooledcafe fantastic, thank you!
I don't understand federation well enough to know what the tradeoffs of running my own instance are. Gotta do some reading 🤔
@[email protected] NOT HELPING
Help, I can't decide which instance to move to 😩
@HerraBRE oh cool, I've used pagekite before. Sounds like it may be its time 🙂
@ewhitebloom the great thing is that since it runs on GNU Social, you can absolutely do this.
@travisaholland congrats!
