I’ll inconveniently only have it online when I’m at home
So this is like a dial-up website where you have to hope that the webmaster’s in?

I guess so, I should probably do something about that

At least get a domain and a cheap vps
CraigCabbage@feddit.online 3 weeks ago
Fair enough. I have a domain but it was free so i can’t change the nameservers for Cloudflare.

Everyone's hilariously ragging on OP for setting up a federated instance with dubious uptime, and I'm sittin' here thinking that it just reminds me of me when I was a young kid hacking around with software.
Back then I set up a mediawiki server with very dubious uptime. Was fun 😂

I recommend you finding a way to not have the computer turned off too often. Federation can handle a bit of downtime, but I don’t know how much exactly.

Why would anyone want to moderate an instance that is not even online most of the time?
bdonvr@thelemmy.club 3 weeks ago
Buddy I don’t think you’ll have users to moderate. It’s a personal instance, that’s fine.

That’s fair

For the low price of $5.99 a month, I’ll provide premium mod/admin services like randomly deleting your comments, blocking you from random comms, harassing you in DMs, etc.
Or you can upgrade to the premium-user package for $15.99 where you get to do whatever you want with my silent approval!
