I’m looking to move to a new Mastodon instance, away from Mastodon.social. I don’t have any problems with .social, but I kinda want to keep things decentralized in the Fediverse, and I want to start fresh with a new account regardless.
So, what small-to-medium size Mastodon instances do you recommend? I’m looking for something fairly general-purpose, but also keeps up to date on the latest software fairly quickly (if possible).
Because not everyone is willing to self-host, deal with domains and take on a long-term commitment?
I’d say OP is right, looking for a stable, medium-sized instance is better for the Fediverse than pushing this idea that everyone should be running their own instance.
