A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

choosing who you federate with and then moderating abusive people that slip through anyway is going to be very important.
If instances get stricter about federation, I really hope small instances are still allowed to federate with the large ones. For example, I'm running my own Lemmy server just for me, and had no trouble federating. That's what I really like about the fediverse - my little server is essentially treated no differently to the massive ones. That's really the point of the fediverse.
What’s it like running your own instance for yourself? Do you need to have a server running and a bunch of storage space?
I'm interested in spinning one up as well, mostly for having the choice of what to name the domain lmao. Right now I gotta look more into it. Hopefully @dan can get back to us with some numbers.
