@Bastianoso@mastodon.social Try icecubes. It might be another data point.

@Bastianoso@mastodon.social I use Tusky on Android so I can't help. However, if Mona is using standard ActivityPub API's, it should work. What error do you get ?

People never write in and ask 'How large is your #LittleFedi SQLite database after 8 hours in production with 27 followers and 127 follows ?'.

This is just a checkpoint (for me) to track growth in the coming days and weeks.

@stefano@bsd.cafe I would prefer the 'Bubble' tab to exclude my own content. My use case is I want to see 'fosstodon.org's timeline. I don 't see why it is sensible for this stream to include my posts.

Secondly, for a single user instance (which might be a significant number of #LittleFedi users), the 'Local' tab is obviously redundant so a configuration option to reorder/hide tabs might be useful.

Is there any issue tracker where users can log bugs and enhancement requests ? Thank for a fantastic package BTW !

#LittleFedi

@po3mah@mastodon.social Use LittleFedi's account migration. It works great !

What happens when a post gets attention on your #LittleFedi instance. Nothing.

Who wants to bother about purging old posts and deleting stale media (cat photos) to save space ?
No one. That what's well designed software with sensible defaults is for.

#LittleFedi

Funny how every blogging platform and theme that appeals to me resembles strongly resembles write.as.

For example, here is a blog post in #LittleFedi

@andyc

I should really write a proper, lengthy, detailed blog post about my experiences with #LittleFedi but there's so much to say and I'm so lazy. Much easier to post assorted screenshots, notes and jottings.

This was a LittleFedi blog post (not a conventional post). Just seeing if it appears in my timeline. It does.

If only people who wrote 48 page blog posts with 5,000 words split into 18 different posts (14/18) could understand why that (potentially valuable) content belongs in a blog post.

Again, LittleFedi makes it easy. It's a one-stop shop !

I run #LittleFedi as a systemd service. Here is my unit file - '/etc/systemd/system/littlefedi.service'

[Unit]
Description=littleFedi Server
After=network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
User=ubuntu
WorkingDirectory=<dir>/littlefedi
ExecStart=<dir>/littlefedi/littlefedi --config <dir>/littlefedi/littlefedi.toml
Restart=always
# Load the secure environment variables here:
EnvironmentFile=/etc/littlefedi.env
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

As the instance is less than a day old, I like to monitor activity in real-time using:

$ sudo journalctl -u littlefedi -f

30 mins to install and configure a fully functional LittleFedi server.
4 hours and 27 minutes to fruitlessly try to configure #LittleFedi to send email notifications.
Tried relaying to Gmail, msmtp and hundreds of different combinations.
Giving up for now but this will nag away at me like the Chinese water torture of a slowly dripping tap.

This is a scheduled post for 13:00 UK time. Time for a well deserved cup of tea !

LittleFedi supports scheduled posts

@chalkahlom@vivaldi.net Work (yak shaving) in progress...

@jbaty@social.lol Littlefedi/Mastodon migration sets up an alias for your 'old' account. So for example, I just received a message - 'jbaty@social.lol moved to a new account'. Not precisely clear (to me) how this works so I put a message in my Mastodon Bio too.

MFA now enabled on my #LittleFedi instance. Still not sure email notifications are working though.

Now I find myself setting up msmtp on Ubuntu for email notifications. This is why I created the successful 'yakshaving' brand !
