Or if you know how to pay someone else to do that for you.

I searched for managed mastodon and found plenty of options.

https://masto.host

https://toot.io

https://elest.io/open-source/mastodon

I expect many more will emerge now that demand is increasing.

The reason I just want a public key is because I don’t really own the account otherwise. I only own it if I self host it. If I rent from them, I’m just renting my account from these services. It’s actually worse than renting it from Twitter because people care less if smaller companies abuse you.
