Over on the birdsite — do i have this lingo right? 😏 — a sex worker friend brings up a good question: what are the most SW friendly Mastodon instances? Anyone know?
@enbrown I saw this conversation go by last week, and the summary seemed to be: There isn't one, and the experience of Switter makes it somewhat unlikely that a good option is likely to appear with ease.
(Folks noted that Switter's experience was likely harmed by US presence, which would likely need to be avoided to have a meaningful chance of success.)

@crschmidt @enbrown I kinda think the problem is that you can't have a good DDOS protection on a budget without Cloudflare (There are options but they're pricyer) and Cloudflare really ain't wanna stick up for sex work
@crschmidt @enbrown Like, setting up a masto with good opsec in a good country is something even I can do.
Protecting it from being taken down by a bunch of cretins who can google "site stress test buy"without having a moderately decent budget ? Not so much
