@res260 okay cool. Thanks for the correction and explanation.
However, I am still concerned about the amount of resources these things take. Like you said, it's not cheap so only small companies, groups, and people willing to fork out the funds for that would be able to do it.
That makes it slightly decentralized, but not nearly as much as Fedi. I run my own instance for $40-$50.
Doesn't seem good for decentralization.
