Well, one of the cool things about Mastodon is that we could actually
run our own instance of it and that's been discussed before. If there's
enough interest, we could put some effort into it, the unfortuante thing
is that it's a stack that we (pginfra) aren't terribly familiar with
(or, well, maybe not 'keen' on it would be more accurate..).
