Hello, I am the founder of /r/RimWorldporn. We would like to move away from Reddit and are looking for a good alternative. We are kind of like /r/earthporn, so we require hosting of large images. We've been around for about 4 1/2 years and have accumulated roughly 30GB of images. The main advantage of Reddit is that it hosts relatively high quality images, for free. Would kbin be a suitable platform for this? We could host our own instance, maybe even centralize image storing on it.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I picked a great project for my first go at this haha. Do you have a quick link to the matrix room so I can check it out? A video guide would be great for those like me, if you're up to it. I'm sure it would be very helpful once people realize they can own their own home here.

Edit: I found the matrix room and ended up getting it going for the most part! Still tweaking the .env settings and trying to get mail/registrations to work though
