@nvk playing 4D chess to spur us plebs into building up our own instances instead of just taking the easy route. Nice.
Does anyone know Lucho Poletti? He illustrated "Satoshi's Citadel", and I'd like to use it as a banner for the instance, but would like his permission first. @ArtForBitcoin @bitpaint ???
Some (cheap) alternatives on hosting your own Mastodon server that I could think of:
1. If you have good internet, not moving around, and have your own RPi: deploy on local. If your ISP didn't provide you with public IP, create a hidden service and go buy a dirt-cheap VPS ($2/year) for solely tor2ip purpose
2. If you prefer VPS: go to Hostens, decent spec container VPS witth low price. $44/3yrs.
You also need a domain on top of it. You can go with either a cheap TLD or a more expensive one.

The govt that was supposed to be by, for and of the people was making those people less free every time it convened.
