More or less, let me clarify:

- I have installed a Write.freely instance in one of the systems here in the house, yes.
- There is NO cost for that other than your time to learn how to do it.
- My personal instance is NOT federated, although it could be if desired; it's one of the options in admin panel.

Why not publish directly from here?

- I could, and actually have spare full blown Servers on hand, Rackmounted Dell Powerservers.
- but that takes time, electricity, and they are production machines. Loud and not so nice to stay around. 😛
- it also bring bi security implications, because now you could become a target to the scum around the dark corners of the Net.

So it would need to be more than a Hobby reason. I think these systems might someday have use, if we have some kind of breakdown, I could become part of a local Library -- all kinds of content in the Net would vanish, and only local resources would be available.

I do read a lot of sci-fi, and Dystopic scenarios are possible.

I am thinking specifically of the "World Made by Hand" series of novels by James Howard Kunstler. His home and the novel's location is not too far from me -- I have travelled there by bicycle touring. 😺
