With previous Rexit’s like the API debarcle etc. many users were left looking for an alternative, but with decision fatigue and bad UX etc. most did not find the Fediverse a viable option.

I need to come up with a solution for registration and validation that I feel safe with. I don’t feel personally comfortable hosting user generated content yet, but once I work out things like verifying emails and doing appropriate CYA then I’ll deploy an instance. I already have userless.xyz locked down.
I’m also missing some features like sponsoring anonymous keys and now I’m working on the decentralized peer-to-peer protocol which I might be more comfortable deploying an instance of.
There’s still so much more to do
