Hello everyone,

My friends and I are developing a fediverse hosting service as part of a worker owned democratic company. We’re committed to building on European infrastructure and, wherever possible, using green service providers for server hosting, S3 storage, and more. We are based in Denmark.

We’re currently seeking users for our alpha/demo phase who would like to host their own Mastodon instance with us for free. All you need to provide is your own domain.

As this is an alpha release, please note the service comes “as is” with potential downtime, bugs, lacks and defects. Ideally, we’re looking for users interested in building an active community on their instance, which helps us properly test our system.

We’ve implemented robust backup solutions, so at worst, instances can be restored from backups. You’ll always have the freedom to export your data when our demo phase concludes if you choose not to continue with our paid service.

If you’re interested or have questions about the project, please contact me here or via email at contact@wilian.me.

Best regards, W

Edit: Thank you all for your interest. Things are still taking shape as we’re developing the platform. Therefore I can’t give meaningful answers to your questions, since everything is still to be settled. This is in a very early phase, so please just see this post as an invitation to try having a Mastodon instance for free for a while. I’m looking forward to giving a more elaborate presentation of the project in the future.
