I’ve been considering self-hosting for over a year now, but I’m still concerned if the feds will come knocking at my door for something someone else does.
For example, if someone on my server follows an individual or community and they posts something illegal (i.e. unauthorized sexually exploitive images) that content could be stored on my server. Wouldn’t’ I be legally liable for such?
I mean #fucklaws and everything, but I don’t want to end up in a cage and certainly not for something someone else did.

I’m sure you’re liable if you don’t moderate. I’m no lawyer, but it’s certainly possible to host things without ending up in prison. google, reddit, etc and lots of other people and companies do it. and they had that happen.
