What's with all the downvotes? I swear there has to be vote manipulation going on with some of these threads.
Itt, I struck a chord? Not sure why I'm being downvoted.
It's a community only instance. If two big instances defederate from each other, then those users can still visit the same old community. I also don't have to follow any rules set by admin which don't really apply to dull content in the first place. Plus I just like growing the fefiverse and the idea of decentralization.
If I subacribe or visit any communities elsewhwere then those will show on the all feed on my instance. So I just have an admin account over there.
It gives you a bit more freedom in that you can federate or defederate with whatever instance you want, you can make your own communities that are free from other instance admin descisions like fed/defed. Less risk of losing your account.
I own dullsters.net but I keep it "pure" by not using that account out here. That way any outside visitor to the site only sees dull stuff.
For me it has been very little work. We'll see how the 1.0 update goes.

My so is a teacher and they have some rough days, but I swear they love those kids more than me. Sometimes they get reccognized in public and it's like they're a minor celebrity.
