AFAIK there isn’t any specific language stuff being done here. As people find and subscribe to communities on different languages they’ll appear on all.
There are instances that bump up the max length. The word you’re generally looking for is “glitch” (instances will say they’re running “the glitch fork” or “glitch edition” or will have version numbers ending in +glitch, which has a few features on top of regular Mastodon), although some regular Mastodon instances may also increase the char count the hard way.
Alternatively, Firefish/Misskey by default has ~3000 characters but it’s a completely different experience altogether (although it still federates with Mastodon (like kbin and Lemmy)). I’m not exactly sure on how Akkoma instances are usually set up but that’s worth taking a peek as well.
Of course this doesn’t address the politics stuff but that’s more on you to curate your own experience.
Learn about reverse proxies such as Nginx or Caddy. The various selfhosted communities on Lemmy should be able to help with your questions. That’ll fix the port conflict problem. (Though I recommend wiping your Lemmy DB and starting from scratch when changing domains. Federation is really finicky in situations like that)
My second recommendation would be to use blocklists to deny the crap parts as opposed to allowlisting as that will impact your view of the threadiverse. (Which by itself isn’t a bad thing, but is the wrong tool for the job in most cases I’ve seen people asking about it)
if ur on android or don’t want to install too many extensions you can also use uBlock Origin with a custom filterlist such as the builtin “AdGuard URL Tracking Protection” or DandelionSprout’s Legitimate URL Shortener (which is included in my usable web guide wink wink nudge nudge)
you don’t need both lists enabled as the dandelionsprout one has all the rules from the adguard one inside it
it’s the complete opposite for me. i just shit out some words and at some point it’s good enough and i hit save and i never look at it ever again
granted i never write anything worth reading so that may be why
there’s a 25 char limit or something like that. if you exceed that it won’t work.
they joined mastodon
