The platform era is ending. Rather than build new Twitters and Facebooks, we can create a stuff-posting system that works better for everybody. (www.theverge.com)

You can flash a pi and have a standalone individual instance. Computing power is growing, scaling grows too. We don't have an option for stuff like AI today, but I could host my own Lemmy instance that only supports my household for $30. Site hugs can still happen but there are still solutions; seeding partitions is one way to resolve that, reposting requires rehosting.
