    Self-hosting your own instance is a pretty good way to bypass the defederation dramas.

      I’ve given it some thought. My ideal would be to run both mastodon and lemmy instances as subdomains of a much broader personal website/project, but I really would also want to have it be the place that all my friends who aren’t in anything federated can go sign up to.

        Yup, that’s what I do. Fyi, I think hexbear is federating on an Allowlist, so you’ll have to request that your instance is added once you have your domain/subdomain setup.
