It’s sad we’ve come to this because nobody can afford an actual home.
This was one of my main needs when i started to look for a platform on the fediverse, while wordpress was the closest thing to what i needed it had partial support for federation but thankfully a little known gem called ‘hubzilla’ turned out to be exactly what i needed to set up my digital home.
This is like the matrix.
