@hendrik the issue for me, is that I'm too uncomfortable "trying" things. Especially when it comes to Fedi stuff. Because federation seems quite delicate in relation to the domain and such. So I fear that if something comes online and starts federating without me knowing (I've left the PC for hours, thinking it wasn't working and came back to a working instance) it could mess up future federation if I need to take it down for some reason.
Also just because I'm very new to Linux and don't know what can go wrong and how wrong it can go.😬
