Choosing a Mastodon instance is easy once you understand each instance’s values, customs, belief systems, and inter-instance alliances and feuds dating back 1,000 years.

@doppioslash Probably not helpful at all re: your requirements, but I think I've settled on hosting not one but two feed readers, fwiw.

The default catch-all one is now FreshRSS, with the FeedMe Android App.
But just for Lobsters and HN (and a few small high-traffic) ones I kinda need a special UI. The feeds have no content, and I usually open 10-20 articles in bulk (only on a computer, not mobile), together with the "comments" link, so I'm trialing Miniflux for that atm (which is too basic for my normal reading habits). Guess I'm very specific in this workflow of quickly sifting through something like this in a reddit-style UI?

I'd used TT-RSS for years but I don't want to support it anymore instead of upgrading.

So far the thing that sucks most at getting to age 35-40: The first band shirts from when you were 18-20 are done for and you have to throw them out.

Every time I'm seeing some "hey this instance that used to be good isn't anymore" or "this one is now getting blocked by a lot of others" or just "hey I moved instances" makes me want to have a completely dumb method to look up people.

Remember when we put all our emails into GPG sub keys and as long as you remembered/had either one email address or the person's name/handle you could go look? Maybe a non-problem but despite the "move" feature of Mastodon I'm somehow not happy with this. No, of course I don't have a good solution, except if maybe people had blogs and I had their RSS feed anyway...
