Head Bee Keeper here at https://gofer.social, a GoToSocial fediverse server. I also run a number of other servers -- https://ibe.social & https://pixelfed.scot, plus moderator on other Mastodon and Catodon servers.

I am here to keep us all safe, and have fun.

@dumpsterqueer @mookie ours is set to true, and has been since the day the option was available, and still we do not feature.

Delighted to say we now have our own #phanpy hosted server. Same great code as the original phanpy.social, but another place to find it.

https://phanpy.app

Ideal for #GoToSocial accounts, as well as #mastodon, etc.

No personal data captured or stored by us. Safety first!

@jo Oh wow, that was a while. We were about a minute for 6.5GB

@keefmarshall can you say which server, and I can try it on our GTS server

We've just updated our #GoToSocial instance to v0.19 (release candidate 2) - almost the next full release. We couldn't wait any longer to test some new features.

Two Factor Authentication, yipee. 🔐

Oh, and the new profile layout which shows only your images to visitors is a triumph. This will be a great alternative to Insta' and Pixel' 🖼️📷️

I can see people having a second account just for their photos and images.

Amazing work @gotosocial team.

@dumpsterqueer If I were to use a snapshot, and for some reason, I want to roll back to an official release should the tits go up(!), is that a problem? (Thinking of the database and any changes made)

Anyone using #litestream for an #sqlite DB

I have a 3GB database, and Litestream is replicating it to another server. However, it seems to be running out of control with disk space. On the original server (where the live DB is) is a generations folder under the hidden litestream folder. It is full of WAL files. Currently over 37,000 files consuming 118GB of disk space.

My config includes retention: 24h and retention-check-interval: 1h with a snapshot-interval: 4h. I understood it would delete anything older than 24 hours. Am I doing something wrong? These wal files go back to the day I started using litestream

Our #GoToSocial server is now federating with over 10,000 servers across the fediverse. Nice.

Massive shout-out to @gotosocial , @dumpsterqueer and team(?).

I migrated our #GoToSocial instance to a new server. It was a joy, and so simple.

  • No ever-ending list of dependencies to install
  • No nail-biting compile/build process

Copy Files, Edit a file as I was changing to reverse proxy. Job done.

Documentation is brilliant too. Huge respect to all.
