Some of my favorite communities are in the instances that Beehaw defederated from. However the instance I use chooses to federate with everyone so I can see everything from everywhere.
I decided to self-host my own instance for that reason. That way I'm actually totally in control of what I'm seeing. It does make finding new communities less organic, but it's easy enough with the new listing tools. Probably not worth the money if all I ran on my server was Lemmy, but as an added service it's great.
How easy was it to get up and running? I’d want to spin it up on my docker host and me be the only user
