Relay questions
https://github.com/g3rv4/FakeRelay/ (ideally together with https://github.com/g3rv4/GetMoarFediverse) Taken together, these two mean that when you follow hashtags, it'll pull posts with these tags from any of the connected instances. Crucially, it pulls federated posts as well as local ones. So once you've connected a handful of large instances, you got a good proportion of the fediverse covered.

How much I’ve spent so far running my own Mastodon server on AWS
A good compromise I’ve found is using something like “FakeRelay”[0] with “GetMoarFediverse”[1] to pull in specific tags from specific larger servers. This acts as a way to get more interested content in your search and other mastodon tabs while benefiting from the moderation efforts of larger servers. Always good to ask the admins of those servers before you do incase they are already at capacity and don’t want the extra load, and contribute to their patreon if they have one.
