How much of a good idea is to have my own instance just to have my account? (lemmy.one)

I'm thinking about deploying my own instance where I'd be the only user and most probable I won't have any communities.
The only thing there will be my account to interact with as many other instances as I want.

What would be de pros and cons of having my account like this?
Would it be harder to interact with other instances in some way?

This is what I'm doing, so far I've got a few threads from other instances where the comments haven't been fetched, and it's a bit of a pain to have to manually add communities you want to subscribe to. Still worth it though imo, it's fun to have my own server.

Yeah, I also thought about that, but I think once I have my own instance it'll be easier to also contribute to the project and find improvements for this :)
