I have one friend who set up his own Mastodon server. Had some fun with it and seemingly forgot about it. The server is still running tho. Some people just don't have the need for social media, they have enough life without it. That's fine. For most, though, having some form of social media presence is beneficial. And the platform on which they have that presence better not be based on the scourge that is the attention economy.
