I'm still working on Habitat. It's a free and open source, self-hosted social platform for local communities.
The plan is for it to be federated, but that's a while off yet.
I finally cracked ansible/docker-compose provisioning on Ubuntu and plan to expand that out to support Debian also. The groundwork is there. I can finally see an official release in the distant horizon, I just need to put those quality of life features in now, like the ability to delete your own account, change your email address, notifications on comments and all that stuff.
Would you recommend your tool to use with a single instance for a local community that won't be interested in federating? I mean self hosting by one person, likely via docker, exposing to a few hundred people, not federating at all, all data should be kept within the community, not public.
If yes, do you think it's already mature enough to give it a spin?

I would recommend it for everything you said except for this part. Everything posted is publicly visible by design. I'm afraid I have no intention of changing that. You're free to fork it if you want though.
