New Patreon post on fedi admin stuff - it's been a pretty quiet couple of days.

I set up a peertube instance. The documentation is quite good so all I traps I stepped into were self made ðŸ«
So apart from the setup including a cache for the video storage: are there any recommended settings for a small server?
Like which transcodings do you prefer, if at all? Is there some stuff I should automate, like cleaning any activity pub stuff (thinking of Mastodon...)? Other checkboxes you can recommend to un/set?

The server is breathing again! It's been a wild ride with a move from London and a career change. I’m broadcasting from Athens for a bit while I rest up for the next adventure in Sweden. Excited for what's to come and happy to be back!

Setting up a server, it took me some hours, but finally everything seems working. Shutdown to take a snapshot, take snapshot, go to bed, checking the website on my phone... Appears I forgot to start the server again...

notes (@notes@nsfw.social)
We require you to state a reason you want to sign up to one of our instances. One word or otherwise short answers like "gayyyyyyy" or "for fun" simply won't cut it.
We get it. Why should you have to specify a reason of all things to sign up with a fedi instance. Especially one like ours? After all, we all know why you want to sign up an account and judging by the box of tissues next to you, you do too.
But that's not the reason we demand a reason.
We do it to weed out bots and scammers.
A bot just wants to sign up an account as quickly as possible and a scammer wants to sign up as many accounts as quickly as possible.
So that's why we require an actual response (that makes sense) as your reason for wanting an account.
Nothing more.

pretty sure I just successfully updated my @gotosocial instance to v0.20.0!
it's my first time, but i stopped my instance, pulled the latest version, then turned it on again and it's showing as v0.20.0 in `./gotosocial --version` which is a good sign?

Mein erster eigener Beitrag auf meiner eigenen Instanz.
Es hat etwas gedauert, doch es gibt einiges zu tun, wenn man noch keine Erfahrung hat.
Warum eine eigene Instanz?
Warum nicht. Ich hab einfach Lust darauf und hab Interesse an Technik und Software. Zudem ist das doch im Sinne der föderierten, dezentralen Netzwerke des Fediverse, oder?
Hab auch eine Pixelfed-Instanz, welche ich noch aufbauen muss.

As a timely reminder, our DNI list includes 77 domains we strongly recommend for defederation.
Some are known to be expired, but they remain on the list for safety's sake.
Each domain is labelled and was investigated by human review. This is not an automated or consensus list.
A Mastodon format CSV for import is available at https://connect.iftas.org/library/iftas-documentation/iftas-dni-list/
Inclusion on the DNI list means we are extremely highly certain the domain will never be retracted from the list.

For as long as my ADHD lets me, I'm going to post these little snapshots of the work I do running .art (and thus, that loads of mods and admins across fedi to).
(I enjoy running this community and it is a fantastic community, I don't want people to think I don't actually want to be here. I do. <3)
