I'm curious if anyone has tips or personal experiences about how they chose a new #Mastodon #fediverse server account and if there are any potential or unknown issues when #mirgating. Any advice would be super helpful!
Thank you 🫶
Please note: I am typically low on spoons, so I prefer not to migrate constantly (I appreciate it may be required to find my niche).
@youronlyone Thank you. I had genuinely not even considered funding. Initially, I was only thinking of themes, rules (which I assume are the same or at least related to moderation) and engagement.
Essentially, I feel since the old place died, I have lost my voice and, partially due to multiple disabilities and other circumstances, my place within the community and society.
@youronlyone Yep! It does feel that way!
Personally, I will recommend our instance (I'm a moderator (but not the owner)) C.IM and also indieweb.social (although I'm not sure if they're a general topic server or more on tech? ).
I can't remember the two ND/Autistic instances. 😅 I think it is neurodifferent.me.
Or, you can give #Bluesky a try: bsky.app since you're restarting your account (if you've heard of it?)
Hmm… if it interests you, we also tag the groups @-autistics@fedigroups.social and @-actuallyautistic@a.gup.pe (I added a hyphen so they don't get tagged for now). Our fellow autistics might have instances they can recommend also.
If you like, you can also create accounts on each and get the feel, see if it fits. 🙂
@youronlyone @wakehamAMR Oh, and speaking of funding, yes, it's usually how you'll be able to gauge how long they'll stay.
It's number 1 for me, because it does take that much. I used to run my own instances back in 2010 to 2016 (IIRC), and it does take from your pockets even if it's a single-user instance of family & friends only.
Then the team behind it (the admins specifically). If they're techie, or an advocate of the software or the fediverse or open-source and similar (usually there's an overlap). It adds more plus points for me. (Since there is the technical side to running an instance, and when things go wrong, they'll be able to get things back running again. 😁) And, you know, how long they're willing to dedicate part of their time.
I mean, even me, eventually gave up running my own. Financials aside, it takes too much time. Hehe.
@youronlyone As for rules, you're right, they're generally the same
It starts to differ when it comes to the sensitive topics and issues. (And the admin's and server location's local laws.)
The Choice is Clear.

"We will adhere to democratic paths of development, we will develop civil society and place state institutions under public control"
- Putin 23 years ago
Then, in the first years of his power, he was still pulling the wool over people's eyes about the lack of alternatives to democratic development and a market economy. He promised that there would be no breakdown of democratic institutions or going beyond the legal framework.

#Putin has always been a #liar. A trained #KGB agent knows how to use deception, #subversion, trust and threat to manipulate and control others.
But the worse thing is that so many #European leaders and politicians still believe they will be able to negotiate with Putin because he will still lead the orcs federation when the time comes.
Putin has literally binned all agreements he or his predecessors signed.
Putin's pen is #russia's colonial wars. Putin's ink is European blood.

This is one of (several) reasons Apple changed its policy on what data apps can capture without customer permission.
Developers thought it was arbitrary.
It wasn’t.
It was remarkable how specifically a device can be identified by knowing exactly which combination of apps you have installed, for example.
