Every instance defederation from my instance only makes me grow stronger.

When I looked into installing mastodon, it was extremely resource intensive and required a bleeding-edge version of Rust, so I went with GnuSocial instead. That supports ostatus, but not ActivityPub, so it federates with fewer and fewer hosts.
I could install pleroma, which has some issues, but is a lightweight design I could actually support, but many mastodon users block all those instances anyway.
tl;dr Masto is hard to install and expensive to run. Partisans hate the alternatives.

You, to me: You poor misguided n00b. You unknowing child. You ignorantly cling to your instance, but I will show you the light, even kicking and screaming, I will guide you to enlightenment.
Me: Jondescension!

My "shitty" instance is the hill I will die on!
