We should not be optimising Mastodon so it can handle more people per server. We should be optimising Mastodon so it incentivises more serves with fewer people.

Updated June 19th, 2023 Sorry, your browser doesn't support embedded videos. But that doesn’t mean you can’t watch it! You can download Small Is Beautiful #23 directly, and watch it with your favourite video player. Small Is Beautiful (Oct, 2022): What is the Small Web and why do we need it? Today, I want to introduce you to a concept – and a vision for the future of our species in the digital and networked age – that I’ve spoken about for a while but never specifically written about:
Site.js version 17.7.0 released
Updates the version of Owncast installed to 0.0.11 (this is the version that has fediverse features).
To setup and run your own Owncast server:
1. Install Site.js on a VPS (this is one terminal command)
2. Run: `site enable --owncast`
3. There is no three. You now have a server with auto-configured TLS running Owncast. Stream away! :)
