Just playing with setting up mastodon on Digital Ocean. Fortunately there's an excellent how-to here

How does toot.twit.tv sound?

@leo i personally found this centos guide to guide me setting up my instance
https://medium.com/@JungleStrike/deploying-a-mastodon-instance-on-centos-7-5073bd1ad265
seems a bit more complete, perhaps too over the top. still useful regardless.

@notjeff Great article, but it's a LOT more complicated to install Mastodon from scratch than it is using Docker.

@leo yup, but I really dislike docker personally, i put mine in a LXC, good read about the pitfalls of using docker in production: https://thehftguy.com/2017/02/23/docker-in-production-an-update/

@notjeff This instance is just for testing. I doubt I'd use Docker for production, or Digital Ocean for that matter. We have our own servers.
