saw someone tweet this “The next time somebody says "you can just run your own instance" I am going to spit in their fucking face, I have been trying to install Mastodon on a server for 7 hours.”
was tempted to do some nixos trolling: services.mastodon.enable = true; (it’s almost this simple)
@pingiun Learning NixOS takes more than 7 hours though :p
@joepie91 if nixos was available on VPS hosts people would actually be able to setup mastodon like that tho. although imo automatic updates should be configured by default
@pingiun Huh, nixos-infect has basically always worked OOTB for me?
@joepie91 i don’t think nixos-infect is trivial. you’re right about the learning curve though
