so i really need to update this instance; i want to move us from the base masto to a hometown instance, but the last time i tried i broke everything.

i'm thinking what i should do is try to install hometown fresh and then import the data from here into *that* database. probably still at this url? not entirely sure if that's a reasonable route but i should probably work on that today.

the main 2 features i want that hometown has are "local-only posts" and lists that don't need you to follow the person on your list

Follow

i want to interact with people at "home" not have it clouded out by publications and info-bots and activism. it would be so nice to look at the curated collection of each of those on their own.

@exiliaex have you considered maybe setting up an Akkoma instance on a different subdomain? It has all your needs and honestly it's just way more customizable and sleek

@lethe i have not considered that because i don't like navigating most pleroma/akkoma instances i see. i know it's not *that* different but that was genuinely my thought process. along with "hometown will probably be easier to upgrade into than starting from scratch" - but i'm gonna start from scratch anyways, probably, soooooo that's fairly moot lmao

@exiliaex oh okay I guess different strokes haha. When I first saw Pleroma it fit so perfectly for me, Mastodon feels kind of corporatey

@lethe yeah, i guess i'm looking for it to look twitter-like, which is definitely corporatey
