Collaborate on Fedi-hosting - looking for others to team up with - eviltoast

I’m looking for others who could be interested in collaborating on hosting Fediverse platforms and tooling, including Lemmy.

The main incentive for this is to build out infrastructure that is super reliable – highly available, geo-diverse, monitoring, best practices, etc, and to have fun doing it with a group of people rather than solo.

We can help contribute towards the shift that is happening from centralized/corporate-owned to decentralized/non-profit. Some of the biggest barriers for services like Mastodon and Lemmy are related to performance, reliability, confusing onboarding, etc. By grouping up we can help improve on these, innovate on tooling and systems that are service-adjacent, and have fun doing it.

Shoot me a PM if interested!

Edit: thanks for all of the responses! Since posting, many people have responded or reached out directly with interest in getting involved.

We have set up Matrix.org channels. You can join here: https://matrix.to/#/#fedicollective:matrix.org

    For the life of me I am unable to send you a PM. I’d be interested in working together. I have a couple Dell PowerEdge r720 servers that are up as long as my internet is. Not sure if you’re to go that route or more dedicated data centers. Either way, I’d be interested in joining the effort!
