Given you are already offering the product for free it would be cool to have a self hosted option.

Typically I'm not the one to suggest this on hobby projects being made into a product bc you gotta make money somehow to support this and I respect that to some appreciable degree.

I hear you. I actually am quite open to making Jottings self-host-able. I might want to slice the multi-tenant layer out before I do that, only because that is complicated and not needed for someone to host and manage multiple sites, and is the part that primarily makes this a product. I'll give it a think.

I also hear you about the making money part, and I largely agree.

If I were to self host, a Mastodon/Pleroma/Misskey with federation turned off seems better choice?

Honk may be a better choice for something like this if you want to use a Fedi base: https://humungus.tedunangst.com/r/honk

It’s already fairly antisocial by design, but if you disable fetching replies it can be a lightweight standalone microblog.
