Comment on Anyone using Revolt?
poVoq@slrpnk.net 3 days agoWhat makes you think Movim is a “hosted service”? You can easily self-host it and many people do: github.com/movim/movim
The developers of Movim are also hosting a public instance, yes, but the official on-boarding page lists it as only one among many others. A bit like how the Lemmy devs also host an instance.
Revolt/Stout on the other hand is rather a “hosted service”, as they are openly discouraging people to self-host it and make it intentionally harder to do so.

The website and marketing! I think perhaps they are leaning into their own brand and hiding the underlying parts a bit too hard… Now that I look at their GH this might be exactly like what I was searching for before and would recommend someone to try, but it didnt rank at all for my searches.
Thanks for setting the record straight. I will have to look closer at Movim again.
