Not sure I believe in the ways of Mastodon. But given how the bully blows through his $44 billion allowance it can't hurt to have another place to play.

Self host the software stack, bootstrap the hardware stack. Anything that isn't recyclable isn't sustainable. Close the loop, build computers out of trash.

I believe in trash magic. https://trashrobot.org/
Self hosting in both the sense of software that can build itself, as well as the decentralized distribution of information.
