This is probably a dumb question but is it possible/advisable for more people to host their own content? Seems like instead of having giant servers where everyone’s stuff is stored we could all just host our own files and people connect to them? Grateful for any insight into the downsides of doing something like that (aside from having to learn how to run a server) #fediverse nub here #activitypub #pixelfed #loops #mastodon
