   I'm extremely pleased to launch Run Your Own Social: How to run a small social network site for you friends.

   This is a guide book to running a small, tight-knit federated social network server. It comes from my year of experience running Friend Camp. It's focused largely on SOCIAL solutions, though it does touch on the technical.

   I've tried to keep it technology-neutral, and it should be a pretty easy read for anyone who's been on the fediverse for a while.

      @darius Thank you, I've been thinking about running my own server for friends for a while. Your article explains what to expect and what is involved.

      @darius I like this!

      If this had been released in the late 90s/early 00s, it could just as easily have been called "Why run your own web forum?"
