What is it?
Well, that's a good question, prolly a change in hosts, but we are remaining with #friendica . We had considered switching to #hubzilla , the successor to Friendica, but it has some weird issues. For one, this instance will not talk to it, dunno why. Also it automagically subscribes me to every thread that I boost or comment on, and there doesn't seem to be a way to change that. And then there's the Diaspora connection, which oddly is more limited than the one here, no idea how that is possible.

So, we're looking at Elastio, their website has improved, or at least they're hiding the requirement of picking your server now, which frankly I don't see why I have to do that, after all, I pay you to take care of setting up a server for me, and all that, I just admin and mod it. But, I do have to contact them about whether they'll allow me to add custom themes, add ons, and such. With me taking a long trip next week, that'll have to wait until I get back.

The other thing to decide is on the domain name, keep the current sub domain, or simply use the main one? Or use my new other domain, I bought it with an eye on a new project, something I don't think I'm going to do, though if'n someone is interested in creating a project for the #Fediverse , I'll be happy to support it, I do have something I'd like to do, Friendica Mk II as it were. That said, I was going to offer @Daniel Supernault the domain if'n he wanted it for a suggested Hubzilla inspired idea for his apps that I offered. If not, I'll keep it as I love the domain, and I might use it for my blog instead. Especially as I might do a invite only friends and family instance instead of the current personal instance.

If any one is wondering, the current name came from my husband having a cattaur OC and me having a centaur OC. With him passing, and my AWD OC becoming my personal OC as it feels more right for me at least right now. Also I did an early renewal on the domain as the price is going up on .haus domains. Domain and email don't cost too much, but add in instance hosting, and it starts to add up, so yet another increase, and I might ditch it. Then again, the new ones (yes, ones), aren't cheap either, so… Eh, dunno what we're doing on that front.

So, seeing as how it looks like @GoFedi is dead or at least dying, looks like we need a new home, but finding Friendica hosting is near impossible.

With that in mind, anyone recommend one?
I know of Elastio I think it is, but that requires me to choose my server package rather than merely hiring them and leaving all the under the hood stuff to them, so I'm not a big fan, I want something similar to MastoHost.

Funny thing, I've been playing with Hubzilla, and its easier to find hosting for that.

Perhaps someone that's already self-hosting their own instance might be interested in making some money hosting mine? I don't mind paying more than cost and labor, a little extra to keep your instance up is fine by me. I'm in the US, but frankly I don't care where my instance is hosted, heck, offshore is prolly best.

Ok, if'n any y'all have noticed, its been quiet here, and frankly that's not changing.

As I've mentioned (at least I think I have), i've started experimenting with #hubzilla , which is going well. What's not going well is my Wafrn, its mostly back, but still a bit flakey after… 5 days? Maybe more, and this is the second major failure this year, not that it wasn't preceded by various random hiccups. Plus for some reason its not unusual, in fact its very common to see the same post multiple times in a row. I like #Wafrn, but I'm definitely thinking its not ready for primetime.

So what this means is that by #HubZ account that was meant to be a temporary test account, is now moving towards being my main account, I mean it can do everything this place can, and it has a better interface. It does have an issue with being so complicated that I need to find time to sit down with the manual and learn how to do everything I want with it, I mean you can have all kinds of accounts, static web page, micro blog, wiki, and more. Seriously, I could set up a main page as a micro blog, a secondary page as a web site, and a third page as a community page. Oh, and then there's the option of making a chat room. Yeah, its really complicated, really hard to explain, but also really neat.

There is one problem, and that gets back to the title of the post. Not sure why, but while I can comment on @Chuff posts, my HubZ posts, I can't boost/quote boost them, there's some kind of issue with linking the servers, and I think that has to do with my host @GoFedi , which I think is slowly dying, I have a similar problem DMing with my #Loops account. Right now I'm manually adding my friends list from Wafrn there as there's no export option on Wafrn, then I'll be copying over my #diaspora friends and RSS Feeds from here.
