If 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.

    @cypherpunks I’ve got the feeling as if the author doesn’t know about the existence of relay servers. With them, also a single user instance works really fine, I think.
