   @dansup what would be the user capacity of such a server?

     @dansup It's not a bad idea, but first we should see if there are people interested, even think about the possible hosting plans (disk space, how many accounts can be created, to give some examples).

     @dansup why not both? Fully hosted instances appeal to a different crowd vs the ones who are concerned about total data sovereignty and know how to spin up a VPS or compute instance and administer it.

     That said, I would think your idea is more appealing to the segment of people who use the Fediverse in general. I'd like to suggest being able to set everything up with just SFTP access or some kind of API baked into the app + license key (similar to how many WordPress plugins do it).

     @dansup API for those who are running containerized instances of Pixelfed where SFTP access may not be the most convenient.

     @dansup ah good point. You're right, you'd also have upfront costs as the services may not run back to back with monthly billing. There's quite a bit of liability. Good thinking!
