Mastodon purges them after a while though.

I'm editing some of my posts to use those.
Not really, it means I can't send every lemmy instance csam.
Sounds good, but maybe consider moving it to a non-piefed.social piefed instance.
I'm slightly scared of another kbin.social happening.
I think you should keep your money for now.
I think lemmy.dbzer0.com is a good match.
Why did you have to point this out
Links to non-shutting down instances.
I'm trying to, but the docs require you to use systemd, and I'm running it in wsl. I can set the instance, but I can't get it to use https for some reason, and piefed returns a 302 on any http request.
Actually, screwing around with it a bit, I think I got it kinda working by changing one string:
"v3" to "alpha".
Edit: changed image link. RIP lemm.ee
Out of interest, what do you think of cuba?
kbin was a lemmy compatible software.
It has all of the lemmy features, with a really nice ui and microblogging (like twitter).
kbin.social was the main instance, it had a lot of users.
The dev eventually abandoned the project, and kbin.social decayed untill it finally stopped working.
It was forked (code copied by a new group, to keep the project alive) by the mbin project.
https://kbin.earth/ is an mbin instance, for example, that's still up.
