mastodon isn’t dead.

the “bigger-boys”, as you put it, are currently fighting it together on appeal in a lawsuit. once the appeal is finished, it will probably head to the supreme court, where Kavanaugh has said it will likely be found unconstitutional.

this doesn’t kill the fediverse. mississippi can’t do shit to you if you aren’t in mississippi unless the state you’re in agrees to cooperate with them. and that’s only after they subpoena your hosting provider, which might not even cooperate with them at all if they are outside US jurisdiction. and if you go through cloudflare? that’s another subpeona from a corporation that doesn’t like revealing information about their users and has gone to federal court on many occasions to fight both state and federal governments.

Trump will pitch a fit and big tech will settle and reinstate Tater Tots accounts.

Why you gotta do my man Sméagol like that?

Why use Caddy at all then? Tailscale would work just as well, with the added bonus that you could access it outside your LAN without exposing it to the clearnet.

Actually, they’ve said that their free tier is what gives them a paid tier to sell to other people. They know most people aren’t going to buy anything from them, but the are fine with that because they get to collect a ton of data about who is using hundreds of thousands of websites in order to figure out what traffic is bad. Without that huge user base, they can’t do what they do.
