@Digitalgerry Would like some hints?

Easy #nytspelligbee today. Started with a pangram and found everything in 40 minutes with no hints. Beeatrice doesn't like BYTECODE. A few obscure words familiar to the #hivemind.

@mark @m Thank you, that makes a lot of sense. Did you decide to host your instance with a cloud provider? How much does that cost?

Watching Designing Women and Julia Sugarbaker just went on a rant about AR-15 rifles.

This episode was filmed in 1987.

I was 15 in 1987.

I'm 50.

@honeymango I just got Mastodon running on a server at home. I used an Nvidia Jetson Nano I had lying around, and it runs Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. I got a new domain from Namecheap and signed up for SMTP service with Mailgun. I followed the installation guide at https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/run-your-own/ and it was straight forward. In total I spent $12 for a year’s worth of domain registration and that’s it. The Nano was $100.

I am new to Mastodon and I love it. So I decided to set up my own server. After wrestling all day with it, I now have Mastodon running on a Jetson Nano.

I want to open it up for others to join, but I am not sure how many users it can support. The server has 4 A57 CPU cores, 4GB RAM and 500GB USB storage. I normally get 500Mbps down, 50Mbps up. Any experts who can advise me on this?

Repost From Nov 20 for #NewUsers

Wait! What's wrong with my bleeping # searches?

Maybe today you tried a search and there was something curious about the results. On this server almost every post returned was 5hr old, then it grew to 10hr, and now it is 11hr. What’s wrong?

Well, first thing is, Mastodon is not broken, but your instance is struggling.

God makes LGBTQ people and God loves them just as they are. They deserve the same rights as everyone else. Anyone who says otherwise is a bigot and you can tell them I said that.
