    Probably because it requires people to actually read the documentation, to install and make a bit of effort in getting something private. I guess people are just too scared to leave their “comfort zone” bubble

      This is probably it, but it’s just so unfortunate that there’s a constant loop that can be solved by just not entrusting a single centralized company to it:

      > Find a good service

      > Good service turns sour

      > Find a new good service

      > Good service turns sour

      Like man, I’m just now getting some people to selfhosted Stoat + Matrix, but I just know once some investor-backed competitor arises, some of 'em won’t even give Stoat a chance for development to catch up.

        To be fair to stoat they fucked up from day one are managed like ass and ran by idiots.

        They wouldn’t catch up if given 20 years head start.
