Perhaps a better idea to focus on hosting a Fediverse instance in
general, Mastodon is not the only one we have.
And from my own experience, Mastodon has been the 2nd most painful thing
to install, only slightly behind Misskey.
I'd much rather recommend people to take a look at Pleroma, Mitra, or
even GNU Social if you're willing to work with an ancient codebase, but
in exchange have a nicer frontend experience and not be vendor locked
into Postgres.

Did you know that?
90% of all emails sent on a daily basis are being sent in plain text, and it's super easy to intercept emails as they flow over the internet?
Never send passwords, tokens, personal information, or other volunerable information without proper PGP encryption!

If you're writing your emails unencrypted, please consider sending PGP encrypted emails for security reasons.
You can find my PGP public key at: https://fair.moe/lain.asc

Every good email client is able to send encrypted emails.
If yours can't, then you should consider switching to a secure email client, because yours just sucks.

My recommendations are Claws Mail or NeoMutt.
