I really really like awoo.space, but with Masto Prime locked down and people flocking to other instances, it makes my plan of using this as my main account less and less tenable

I know *why* Awoo relies on whitelisting, but it's such a blunt instrument. People may not realize the politics of joining instance X when first given a list of Mastos to choose from

@Kit There has been talk of making it more obvious and clear to users when signing up.

@Kit @vahnj has also been pretty fast and responsive at looking into other instances to federate with; e.g., one was just added an hour or two ago.

@dog I guess my worry is that boutique/single-user instances (which are totally cool!) will proliferate and make this approach super time consuming for @vahnj

Awoo Space
