- rcarr 4y agoSo what are the actual benefits of using something like this over something like mastodon or something like pleroma? Are they all just essentially the same thing? I'm starting to wonder now if 'self hosted single user' is a bad way to go as presumably you're almost invisible to everyone unless people are looking at the global feed which I guess is uncommon.
- __d 4y agoI'm not an expert, but I think: yes, you're basically invisible, save to those who chose to subscribe to your feed. I think if there's a single subscriber on a server, then your toots will show in in that server's global feed, but ... on any reasonably-sized server, you'll be next to invisible in that firehose anyway. The benefits are that it's a very low-overhead implementation of ActivityPub when compared to eg. Mastodon.
