I work on a tool that makes provisioning cloud infrastructure and deploying code to the cloud easy, based on application templates.
I'm not at all an expert in Mastodon internals but it seems like we could probably create a template to stand up Mastodon servers and then provision/deploy with the Azure Developer CLI (via azd up)
Anyone game?
@savannah I've spent a lot of time in a $COMPANY app that works a lot like mastodon, so I'd be happy to help. The docker-compose is ok if you want to run your own personal instance, but what the community seems to be missing (afaict) is an easy way to stand up a scalable installation. There's a fair amount of stuff to do to get it to run cloud native, but I'd be willing to discuss further and submit PRs on a repo. Someone was working on a helm repo, but k8s shouldn't be required imho.
