Good morning Fedi friends!
I know this is not the right place to ask for this but I'm in need of a Jiminy Cricket / voice of reason to talk me out of something I am sooo tempted to do:
1) buy a new domain name (to be fair it would be a good move to secure it, can't explain why till I do)
2) set up my own Sharkey instance with it (no need for this whatsoever except that I'm impossibly smitten with it)... to use this as a private little instance to interact with friends / contacts.
I can't get Sharkey out of my mind, help 😆

#MySoCalledSudoLife@elena Hahaha, Sharkey tempts me often ;-)
Do you envision a way to use Sharkey?
More/less integration with Ghost/GoToSocial, or different post for different user public?

#MySoCalledSudoLife@elena you could install Sharkey on a subdomain instead

#MySoCalledSudoLife@elena sure, sure. get that sorted first. and then after that what exactly are we supposed to be talking you out of?

@slothrop maybe I was sort of hoping for encouragement and reinforcement, given the general sentiment over here 😂

@elena LOL 😂
Just buy the domain name, if it’s under 20€. Set a reminder for 11 months from now to check if you still want / need it.

@leonieke haha it's so tempting isn't it?
I suppose I want a quieter instance where I just comment on friends' / contacts' posts.
My Mastodon account can get so noisy, with 100+ mentions some days.
I just want a little quiet corner of the fediverse that's a little bit slower, if it makes sense? And Sharkey is so joyous -
@mirabilos oh I know but I'm tired of installing subdomains on my TLDs. Their DNS records are absolutely bananas. Plus I really need to get that specific TLD I have in mind...

@slothrop on IONOS it's 1 Euro only but I can't figure out if it includes domain privacy... otherwise on my usual hosting company it's 15 Euros

And yes, I understand the reasoning behind it.
And to keep it private / away from the bulk of the fediverse: good point!
(Go for it!
)But why a new domain, why not install it on a subdomain? (This from someone who buys new domains for funny phrases her neighbors say, only to let them lapse after 12 months of non-use)

@leonieke yes yes I completely agree re: domains but this particular one I need to secure (independently of any Sharkey installation), so I thought: cool, I can then immediately use it for Sharkey. If it makes sense? Plus the DNS records for the TLD I own and use for self-hosting are a real headache... because of all the subdomains I created. I'd love to start with a fresh slate...
