Yunohost is pretty amazing at making it simple to run your own fediverse instance. They have Lemmy, PieFed and more in there.
I wouldn’t use it for anything that would have tons of users because for that you’re going to want to get your hands dirty occasionally to tune it up in ways that Yunohost could make impossible(?) but for an individual or small group it’d be perfect.
I had set it up once (GoToSocial), but I missed the local part of my Mastodon instance. I think a couple thousand users on an instance that are geographically close to each other is a real strength of the microblogging fediverse.
And now with PieFed getting better at following microblogging accounts, I see no need to set up GoToSocial again. Thank you for that :)
