"Private" in the meaning of running your own host, or "private" as in "people I don't trust can't access it"? The latter would be quite interesting to me. How to achieve that with gnu social platforms?
- mxuribe 10y agoIn my case I actually meant both; I do host my own, and I've locked it down as a private instance only for my family. (I do this partly to play around and learn, but more so for me to teach my kid how to actually use social media but in a safe environment, before letting them loose on the public/uncontrollable silos.) Here's a screenshot of some of the settings for restricting access on gnu social: http://imgur.com/a/gXy7y http://imgur.com/a/gXy7y
- erikb 10y agoIt really looks like they thought about that when developing gnu social as well and you can just set checkboxes. That's nice. In that regard I'll probably also set up my own instance. Thanks!
