FBXL Social

There is a big difference between self-hosting and hosting elsewhere: You are in full control. If you want to defederate from someone, go ahead. If you want to federate with them, go ahead. If you want to have a color scheme nobody else has, go ahead. If you want special features, your own special emoji, special rewrite policies, or whatever else you want, it's all within your power.

Once you start following people on other servers, soon it doesn't matter that you're not on the same server because you get a fantastic feed with just a few hundred active follows.
