I'd agree with both of these items:"If you're thinking of setting up a Masto server, please, please, do two things:1. read up on what it was like to run a Usenet server. The dynamics are very similar in that you are responsible for policing your own users so that your server isn't blocked. Mastodon is Usenet with a REST API and a character limit.2. (CW: dark, seriously dark) Read this recounting of what it was like to keep LiveJournal useable."#Admin https://www.metafilter.com/197381/waves-new-Masto-thread

@tchambers for people who want to avoid "dark, seriously dark" LiveJournal early days, the author posted a followup thread about the bare minimum to look for in new sites. Lots to think about here: https://twitter.com/rahaeli/status/1594756281650524160 .

@cellio @tchambers that's a seriously important thread. After you've soaked up the appetizers for _why_ these things need to be thought about, here's her guide for people thinking about running a Mastodon server\*:https://denise.dreamwidth.org/91757.html\* Actually not Mastodon specific. The same concerns apply for any service under a domain you control that accepts content from other people.

@cellio @tchambers it's a long read. Start with "End notes" to prioritize or weight what you pay attention to.
