For software, I have test <a href="https://pc.cafe/tags/snac" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>snac</span></a> and <a href="https://pc.cafe/tags/mitra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mitra</span></a> instances self-hosted on debian, both easy to install and update (snac from source, mitra from the supplied debian packages), and they have mastodon API support so most mastodon apps should work with them. As for mastodon, I use mastohost.com to run my instance for $6/month (I've heard good things about fedihost.co too, plus they also support <a href="https://pc.cafe/tags/gotosocial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gotosocial</span></a>)</p>
