They'll be devastated when they find out my closed instance with 2 users, 1 of which is inactive, also pre-emptively de-federated them. I shudder to think they'll ever recover.
Is there an advantage to hosting your own instance?
For me, yes. My instance is considerably faster and has better uptime than any of the instances I have created accounts on. Mostly because I'm the only one using it.
Yep, while other were complaining about issues it was smooth sailing for me.
On the flip side, discovering new communities is a pain, and whenever i subscribe to a new community it can take hours to start populating comments.
