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 I like it! There's a few little quirks here and there but it's only had two releases. I seem to be able to contact all networks I typically talk to without a problem.
I'm keeping my GTS and snac instances online for a while for the forseeable future, if only for backup purposes.
Snac has been very useful to have around regardless as in times when I've had to migrate and/or restore from backup snac has been the quickest to get back on line, GTS database restores have just taken a while. In theory, #littleFedi, for which I'm using SQLite, should be pretty quick to get going too - we may see at some point in the future!

I've both snac and littlefedi and littlefedi is having problems following or getting follows from yourself and other gts servers but I think it's because they're on the same external IP. My snac and littlefedi so hopefully will be ok if I totally migrate.

@justine@snac.smithies.me.uk oh, OK. I've not had those experiences myself... I have been able to follow your littlefedi instance from both my littlefedi and my GTS. Not seeing any errors in my logs for that.

The same external IP shouldn't be an issue I don't think as instances shouldn't really care about that (unless there's rate limiting I guess)
