So how many folk are have migrated to running their own #littlefedi out there in the fediverse and what are you thoughts and feelings so far?

@justine@snac.smithies.me.uk Yes. I'm all in on #LittleFedi. Turns out I really enjoy managing my own self hosted, single user instance. I deleted my previous Mastodon presences. Couple of minor irritations but no deal breakers

  • Tusky on Android is unreliable so I use the excellent Web UI which includes the Admin screens.
  • I can't follow folk on micro.blog, tags.pub or bsd.network. I suspect this is API incompatibility but that may improve.

The performance and low resource requirements are already covered but the LF documentation is comprehensive and excellent.

Plus we've already had one patch release so far!

@andyc @justine@snac.smithies.me.uk More things I like:

  • Writing posts in Markdown.
  • Bubbles. I created a UK focused timeline.
  • Upgrades. Simply download and drop in the new Go executable. Done.
  • Tailing the LF log file.
