I just recently experienced one of the risks of being part of a small Mastodon server: Server seems to be down and no way of knowing whether it'll be back since I can't contact the admin. It's not my personal Mastodon account but still...

This was what killed it for me. At one point the admin of my instance de-federated from .social--aka the place where the bulk of new users land--then reconsidered and re-federated, thus essentially soft-blocking half of everyone's follows, with no notice. Just casually severing people's connections.
