   @evan I just hope there's no major financial influence from the major companies involved like Meta.

   I don't want to lose control of my own site because I am not a programmer. I have a bit of control with Mastodon right now. However, there are some gripes everyone has had like lack of moderation features.

   I worry a financial influence to change certain things will lessen my control and I'd have to find another software.

   My worries always come from a place of passion and concern.

   Thanks for your response. I appreciate you.

   Cannot overstate the value of regularly delivering working software.

   My single most effective software dev habit is to start with a walking skeleton -- a "real" if very stubbed out program that can be deployed on its real infrastructure, receive real calls, visited for real etc. -- because of what this does for non-programming stakeholders.

   When they see a real working thing and then they see that thing get meaningful improvements they tend to chill *way* out and get much easier to work with.
