Maha Bali مها باليAnd yay @timmmmyboy shows us he is da man for installing his own Mastodon on his own domain and connecting with us on Mastodon.social - now to explore the affordances and tips/tricks of that approach!
Tim Owens@mahabali Cool to see that it's working. That install was....intense. Too late for me to stay up and play but I'll poke around a bit more in the morning!
Scott Leslie@timmmmyboy what's the location of the server, is it social.timowens.io? Wanting to get a handle on addressing across instances, can I set up an account there?
@sleslie You got it right. Sure, feel free to setup an account there, can't promise I'll keep it online more than a few weeks but for the time being I'm all about experimenting. First I've heard mention of Quitter but interested in it! The federation part I think is key and something that easily gets lost in the shuffle that could be valuable going forward with any project.
@timmmmyboy that server doesn't want to respond over http at the root, is there a special path or port?
Dan Blickensderfer@sleslie @timmmmyboy Try :3000 (That's how Jim set mine up)
@Dan_Blick @timmmmyboy good guess!
