I created an account for my dogs to try out pixelfed: @fedipugs
So far its been a bit rough (no video support, hyperlinks get broken 🪦)
But if you like cute pet pictures maybe it could be worth a follow, I'll try to post when I can and occasionally maybe repost older stuff from the instagram that my partner made in the past.

Ok, tinygo is definitely not stable enough for this, moving on to trying rust instead https://docs.rs/age/latest/age/ 👀
From yesterday: research into related memory leak here: https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/issues/1140#issuecomment-1314608377
Streaming again, getting to work on running FiloSottile/age to run in the web browsa (compile golang to WASM with tinygo compiler)

> **USABILITY: init db before configuration is completed causes silent failures / broken instance #20820 **
IMO this is usability bug in mastodon or in the specific mastodon docker container you are using. A configuration issue of this magnitude should trigger massive highly visible error messages, it should trigger the app failing to start.

Querying the db showed:
```
# SELECT username FROM accounts WHERE id=-99;
username
----------------
localhost:3000
```
Which corresponded with the value in the curl
```
"preferredUsername": "localhost:3000",
```
So a quick fix was to connect to psql and run the following update: UPDATE accounts SET username = 'destituent.social' WHERE id=-99;
Now I can toot at my friends over on pixie.town!
Hopefully I didn't burn too many of your CPU cycles @f0x and @forestjohnson thanks!
