Honest question : Why Mastodon ? I had a single-user instance very soon after discovering the fediverse, but the needed stack to run a Mastodon instance is really insane compared to something like Akkoma / Iceshrimp. I would never use Mastodon for a low number of users, including all the limitations compared to other micro-blogging activitypub compatible services.

Yea, as far as I’ve gathered, Akkoma is the way to go for single-user instances. Cleaner and more efficient platform with flexibility in the front end (and, IIRC, reply retrievals?)

There’s also GoToSocial which is made to be lightweight from the get go.
