   @filippo @FediThing @foone Yeah but if that's your criteria, you can host your own single-user instance and federate and still participate in the network.

     "Technically any hosting provider can do this for any online platform."

     Not really? I host my website on Fly.io but they can disappear tomorrow and I will just change my DNS records. (Registry and registrar are strictly regulated.)

     Likewise, my newsletter is on Ghost but I can take my subscribers with me unilaterally.

     If chinwag.org goes offline though, you can't move your followers. Whether that's intentional or not.
