Earlier today a comrade got a pretty good tankie instance for Mastodon on this post of theirs. So I was thinking, due such things exist for other federated platforms such as Pixelfed and Peertube? And if so, which are the best for our purposes?

These are all fair points. I agree that for the time being, while resources are slim, we should take care not to over expend them. I simply thought that is they did exist, it would be nice to take advantage of them. As things currently stand the only other instance that would make sense is probably a BookWyrm instance, but sense I know little of the logistics for the platform even that might be quite a strain on resources. Thank you!
Oh, don’t worry, I just think Pixelfed doesn’t many people in general, a Mastodon instance would allow for us to interact with other stuff not only Marxism related at least (I saw George Takei has an account there, for example), for discussion is not that helpful IMO. So I think Pixelfed is pointless at this stage, hopefully in the future. PeerTube sounds really nice but it requires a lot of space, still, if someone out there has the resources, please do it. A BookWyrm account would probably be super easy to deploy and not heavy on resources since you only store text/metadata and some images, that’d be the easiest of them all.
No I wasn’t worried or anything, regardless, thank you for your detailed responses and willingness to reiterate when you feel you didn’t quite get your point across.
