Cannot find an instance I like. (sopuli.xyz)

I cannot find another instance that I feel like will accept my content without dividing it in different instances.

I like posting different things like clips from older cartoons (both English and Italian), videogame clips or tutorials, tech tutorials, repost memes... and I wanna stream me playing videogames. I don't wanna see any NSFW.

I used to like an instance called yt.is.nota.live but didn't use it for quite some time. Checking back now, looks like it's no longer being hosted.

With how instances are setup and moderated I indeed feel like I would have to make multiple accounts in different instances.

Should I just look into creating my own instance? I am fine with creating multiple channels to divide the content, just don't want to make multiple accounts to remember both credentials and where they are hosted.

It's actually surprisingly easy to host your own instance, and if you don't allow anyone else on it then it's also very cheap, the cheapest VPS is good enough. I do the same thing, I have a cooking channel, a music one, one for family videos and one for Peertube Admins. I would have the same problem as you finding the right instance.

I feel the exact same way. I just made my own instance and divide up my content. Each sub community is like a different interest of mine.

I reset it though and pauses federation due to the prior fiasco regarding the malicious images/users.

But, I really love the idea of having a personal Lemmy and in my previous run it felt like it was still gathering connections authentically. Although bigger instances won’t necessarily federate, but that’s not that necessary

I think you misunderstood, he posted in !Peertube@lemmy.ml so I guess he/she meant that they couldn't find a PeerTube instance which would allow all different video clip contents they are posting.
