@HolosSocial @silverpill @jupiter_rowland Thanks for answering. As a non-programmer, many details go over my head, but are interesting anyway... It's like reading Science-Nonfiction or something. A lot of interesting stuff is happening, there's great characters and a million wildly complicated backstories (where oneself is, somehow, involved!), but it's all true, and the "interesting stuff" can many times be fact checked and subject to proof, unlike in Sci-Fi.

I'll keep on reading about it, and trying new things. I wouldn't say that I (personally) have been misled with the Holos messaging, but I'd lie if I said that I understand everything implied here...

So again, thanks for your work, for answering my questions, and for looking and going in interesting directions.

@jandi @HolosSocial @jupiter_rowland In simple terms: if you don't attach your own domain name to an account, there is no portability, and that's not different from mastodon.social.
If you use your own domain, you are more independent, but you'd probably be better off hosting a full fediverse instance yourself, instead of relying on a middleman to transfer messages. There are many lightweight alternatives to Mastodon.
