#mastodon #mastoadmin #selfhost

servidor immich actualizado a la primera versión estable. Es uno de mis software favorito de selhosting.
#immich #selfhosting #selfhost

looking to #selfhost a #mastodon instance, anyone know any good options? #fediverse

Aha! Back up and on v4.5.0
#Mastodon #selfhost #footiMac

Attention selfhosters: 2025 Selfh.st survey is open

TIme to start the process of updating to Mastodon v4.5! Now that I've lightened the load on little #footiMac this should be a much quicker process than the past few updates!
Happy Updating!
#MastoAdmin #selfhost

- Snikket is intended to run alone on a cheap VPS.
- Chatmail with reachable SMTP/SUBMISSIONS/IMAPS/HTTPS ports.
It seems like it’s difficult to find a chat server to #selfhost when you’re running a other https services on the same machine

I fully and completely endorse the freedom of setting your own character and polling limits! Please join me in this celebration but taking part in this meaningless poll!

upgrade complete! #selfhost #footiMac #Debian #mastodon #fediverse #upgrade

updating to Mastodon v4.5.3!
#selfhost #footiMac #Debian #mastodon #fediverse #upgrade

just looking at my archive of postgresql backups over the past 2 years of my mastodon instance.
In December 2023 just shy of 1 year since spinning it up, the compressed gz file of the database was 600MB.
By Aug 2024 it was 988MB
In April 2025 it was 1500MB
Today it is 1800MB.
That is a 2 user instance. Not small!

Hey #selfhost #mastodon folks! How do I update node.js in the live directory on Debian?
I thought I had written it down somewhere and now can't find it. The install docs at joinmastodon don't help as they're now using apt to install nodejs which is different, i think from when I installed my system.
#nodejs #debian

So I was at node 22.9.0 and mastodon's compiler was complaining that I needed to be at least 22.14 or something… I've used the command at root:
n latest
and
n stable
The first installed v25.2.1
The second installed v24.11.1
now when I do node --version it reports:
v24.11.1
So hopefully the next time I need to do a mastodon upgrade it won’t complain anymore? 🤷‍♂️
#selfhost #mastodon #nodejs #debian

bam! Docker Mission Accomplished!
🫡
All webcam streams have been redirected from a single nginx process on #footiMac (which is also, of course, running this very mastodon #selfhost!) to their own docker containers on another iMac using Docker CLI/Colima.
I can already 'feel' the difference in response time for footiMac and posting/updating on mastodon! Yay!
