i'm thinking about making a single-user instance (via masto.host) but have read some cautionary tales concerning limited post visible/reach due to the technicals of federation (this is the most-cited article: mull.net/mastodon).

does anyone w/ experiencing running a single-user instance have any insight? is it really a "bad idea?" esp from the perspective of someone who is less interested in seeing "federated timelines" and more focused on follower interactions?

Erinc M.Single-user Mastodon Instance is a Bad IdeaIf you're thinking about setting up your own single-user Mastodon instance, I urge you not to do it. The user experience is so broken that it's baffling that anyone would find it acceptable.
