I haven't decided on anything yet, but I've been considering a different instance going forward if I'm going to hold a space on masto for keeping in touch with the twitter exodus.
I do appreciate what this instance is aiming to accomplish by explicitly permitting instances, but I've had issues in the past with not being able to connect w/ friends on smaller or self-hosted instances.
I'm unsure exactly what I'm going to decide here.
@SomeEgrets that could work!
and if there's a specific instance you want to communicate with, you could also @ an admin to ask them to whitelist~
single user instances are very easy to justify since they are just one person
@SomeEgrets yeaaah, i've definitely been there ^^'
i hope you feel better soon though! (also, it's nice seeing you around again..!)
@thingywott yeah! I'm just in deep fried brain territory, so if I can make the thing I already have work for me, I think I'm just gonna do that. If there are actual problems, I can just deal with them as they happen rather than try to anticipate every possible future before it happens.
