HARD PASS

I don’t even have meta/ig account

What’s there to federate about image cdn? If you don’t want to use 3rd party service just self host. You just have to make compromises either way.

I’m not sure about the longevity but a lot of people use discord as CDN apparently. There’s even an API for that.

Yep. I just don’t care anymore. I have all the community I possibly need right here. I can miss some niche communities but this is all I need for the time being.
