I think they mean in terms of workload, not like pay or something. Either you have a lot of work, or very little work. But when you’re needed, you’re needed urgently.

I think it was specifically for mobile - I whitelisted the facebook domain (easy) but blocking various ad servers would also break functionality on the site.

I might have to try that. I had pi hole set up but my gf couldn’t use facebook so I was politely asked to remove it

Yeah it doesn’t matter - don’t listen to drama fiends. .ml is fine. Lots of people decry it as being a tankie instance. The whole point of federation is you aren’t limited to the content on your instance - just by which instances yours is federated with.

If people or your instance bother you, make another account. Otherwise, just ignore the haters
