hrm - anyone running a Pleroma personal server for the fediverse? i like how it uses elixir and apparently is less resource intensive than mastodon/ruby 🤔​

https://docs-develop.pleroma.social/backend/installation/freebsd_en/

might give this a spin today if i can find some cycles...

so it's actually pretty darn easy to get #pleroma running in a #freebsd jail using bastille. i also really like how it's built using erlang since i've got tons of experience running erlang apps at scale.

the docs are pretty great, the admin web UI looks good. great job devs - i reckon we could turn this into a bastille template pretty easilly.

gonna kick the tires later today and decide if its worth running my own fedi instance. the tech stuff is easy, but what about all the admin overhead?
