Decided to setup a Mastodon server after migrating over from my private instance. Runs in the cloud, albeit on a free-tier Oracle Cloud instance so only taking limited signups as it gets started so I can watch utilization.
From the title of this post and the URL you can see I intended it to be centered around LGBTQ+ folks and their allies, but anyone from Richmond or the surrounding areas is welcome!
https://rvalgbt.xyz/invite/d3FXJACj - limited to 100 people to start, will update link if it gets used up depending on how the loading looks like.

Serious question wouldn't it be easier to set up as a subreddit? My ignorance here is vast but Mastodon instances kind of seem like DIY subreddits
