It is nice and small server that do the basic well. I once use it on my poor $5 vps while being stuffed together with several of my PHP/MySQL apps. It has small footprint, several of my friends still use it on half-gigs ram vps.
But its lack of features sucks tho, there are no working filters, no disable re-toot per users setting (like on akkoma), and also there are no relay support so my timeline looks bare.
I migrate from GtS for now, but if above features are implemented in near future, may be I’ll migrate back to GtS.
Just uses Akkoma or GoToSocial, setup fedifetcher or follow some relays and you can get good enough experience in Fediverse. Mastodon is literally build to handle huge amount of users so it is nowhere near efficient if used for just 1 person.
