If you want to be your own community’s host, you’ll also want to start your own community on your instance. The longer you wait, the more users will have to move from the current to the new community. We started ours on an existing server (and it still exists) but we realized early that it would not give us enough control over the posted content (specifically filesize limitations) So we quickly started our own instance.
“while you still can”
That is ominous. Creating my own instance has been a “someday” project for me. Is there something to be worried about?
