The pruning of accounts on #footiMac #selfhost is finally complete! That procedure alone ‘pruned' 314348 accounts and 100GB of related data on disk. Now... to do a few more cleaning tasks, as per recommendations from friends here. We're going to dive right in to tootctl media remove which should remove a LOT of remove media from the system. :)

Ya tengo el servidor XMPP (Prosody) con las funciones bšsicas operando y probado.
De verdad no es tan simple, país hay que configurar varias cosas, pero tampoco es algo taaan difícil. El hecho de que yo lo haya podido hacer lo prueba.
El próximo paso es habilitar un servidor TURN/STUN para llamadas y una interfaz web.

#selfhost v4.4.1 upgrade complete! Phew that was a long one. But I think I found the root of the issue in the zombie pixelfed install. Maybe it had a memory leak (it wasn’t a current version) or maybe it was just too much for #footiMac.. but it was definitely slowing things down. Things are much more responsive now in general. I guess that brings the pixelfed testing to an end for now. But I'll probably bring it back up elsewhere if I get a chance.

When I wrote my last post above I got an error from my instance that the post was over the 500 character limit. Which is odd, since I have the limit set to 2000 on my instance.
Sure enough, it looks like somewhere along the line I blew away the config files that had been edited to enable the longer posts.
So consider this a test to see if I have correctly re-applied the hack, which is what it is, and completely unnecessarily, in the code for mastodon when this should be a simple switch/option in the admin panel!
(edit: confirmed: 2000 character limit restored)

proud of little #footiMac. 2008 Core2 Duo iMac with 16GB RAM and a 1.5TB SSD
She's done excellent work in her space under the stairs. nearly a full year of uptime and chugging away doing Mastodon, Pixelfed (until just now), weewx Weather server, homebridge, streaming relay point, and general web server.
My next trick will be to see if I can move mastodon from using local storage for media to using cloud storage. I'm at about 70% usage now, so it's time.
Your old computers always have a purpose friends! Don't throw them away!

Logré levantar un servidor xmpp con prosody 🤓
Lo único que no me gustó es que no tiene imagen wn docker.

Do you selfhost?

Ok #mastoadmin #selfhost #S3 aficionados. I don’t have any experience with object storage providers. I am looking to move my self-host mastodon account here from local storage on my 2007 #footimac to my account at leaseweb. Could you help me with the answers to their queries? I suggested, completely off the top of my head and without experience, i would need 1.5TB and low bandwidth. Not knowing if that makes any sense.
“ for a 1.5 TB provision with low bandwidth usage, we can provide an estimate once we have more context on access patterns, regions, and any specific requirements.”
Thanks for any help!
