nimstodon<p>I've had so many conversations with internet and non-internet people alike in the last six months about getting off of corporate social media or otherwise taking control of your life online that I've started a conscious project to reboot it for myself and document the process.

El Gordo<p>5 months into self-hosting my single-user instance, and I have zero complaints. The cost comes up to $6usd/mo. (~$8 cad, atm), and there’s headroom to spare. I’m running Akkoma on Fedora (which I thought was 38 but is actually 37 so I guess I should probably update it).</p><p>This is on a Vultr “Cloud Compute” server, with the “AMD High Performance” option (EPYC CPU + NVMe storage) on the lowest tier: 1 vCPU, 1GB memory, and 25GB storage. As an irritable person who hates waiting for things to load, it’s performed beautifully.</p><p>I can’t comment on Mastodon. While I’m told it’s a bit of a resource hog, especially as it scales, it might be perfectly fine for a single user instance, although when I was first considering self-hosting, I was advised that I’d be better off spending $15 or $20 minimum on a more capable server for Mastodon. I can’t refute or confirm that statement, so use your own judgement, but I don’t really like the way the Mastodon project is run, and I like being able to use Markdown, even if barely anybody will see it.</p><p><a class="hashtag" href="https://borkr.one/tag/selfhost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selfhost</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://borkr.one/tag/selfhosting" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selfhosting</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://borkr.one/tag/singleuser" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#singleuser</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://borkr.one/tag/singleuserinstance" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#singleuserinstance</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://borkr.one/tag/akkoma" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#akkoma</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://borkr.one/tag/fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fediverse</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://borkr.one/tag/hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hashtag</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://borkr.one/tag/octothorpe" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#octothorpe</a></p>
