I keep going back 'n' forth on whether to experiment with Pleroma on my Pi. :-) A Tildes post on the sad news that Feneas is struggling has rekindled the fire, oddly. I just like knowing, first-hand, what's involved in running these services; I feel it makes me a better yarn.social advocate. ^⨰^
@jlj One thing I don’t get is what the €60 per month pays for? Why are they’re infrastructure expenses so high?

@prologic Oh, wow. Didn't notice that. Yeah, that does seem expensive.
@jlj Well, Pleroma is non-trivial to set-up. And there is no archived source of support, that I've found. May abandon the idea for now.
I had a Pleroma node up for a little bit. It sort of died for some reason a few months later because its resource usage kept going up.

@xuu Yeah, I'm pretty discouraged. Phoenix died the first time, because the database migration failed, I think. Then a new, simpler instance failed after crippling my Pi for 12 minutes; the log wasn't clear on the eventual reason.
Not sure what I was on about: the OTP releases install for Pleroma was very smooth (this time).\n\nAnyone who wants to dip a toe in the Fediverse is welcome to at: https://pleroma.nfld.uk -- I've got manual approval of registrations on for the moment, just to be safe, but you needn't worry about justifying the ask with an essay or anything. ;-) Now, to figure out how all this stuff *actually* works. :-D
