I am wanting to self host a fediverse instance. I don’t hope to make it big. Hoping for 200 users at most, and I won’t advertise it heavily so it’ll probably be a while before it gets there.

Is it a bad idea to host something like this on local hardware at home? I have a lot of local-only self hosted services, and I wouldn’t want those to be compromised.

But my biggest fear is overloading my network. I already don’t get the fastest signal in some parts of my house, and I am worried the extra traffic might put more pressure on the network.

What are your thoughts on hosting local? Should I just avoid the headache and host on public instance?

    My own actions? Please, tell me all about my own actions. What do you know about my actions?

    I’m simply pointing out the fact that you’re advocating for enabling the sexual abuse of children.

    And you have the audacity to call out my “actions” (which you have no idea about, mind you).

    Delusional.
