Is there any benefit to host my own instance?

    A balancing act for sure. I’m torn on the topic. With some much excitement right now but so little history there’s a lot of uncertainty where to “plant your flag”. Part of me wants to setup my own instance simply so I maintain control of my identity should .world suddenly disappear. On the other hand now I have the responsibility of making sure I don’t make myself disappear. The mental debate will continue.

      I think for now it’s so early it doesn’t matter all that much. Just have fun! You can make multiple accounts so why not
