> You host your own content, and non-230 telecom rules protect a pure cache so bandwidth and always-on internet needn't be an issue.

You can already host your own content. Bandwidth is a non-issue right now.

You’re ignoring, or don’t understand, that the benefit of social media is sharing and distribution. The repeal-230 people always have some fanciful ideas about an alternative system appearing to fill the void and that it will be better for reasons, but the bottom line is that without some protection for services to share content it’s going to be negligible exposure.

Only the few with access and connections to the well-connected large media outlets would have distribution. It would be a total self-own for small people who want to share something.

They would be legally responsible for anything federated into their feed, anything anyone who logs in via their server posts, etc.

You're already responsible for everything you would be on a private server (one user). If you go to 8chan and see illegal content then good luck telling the authorities you're not responsible because it's 'just' in your browser cache.
