I just stumbled upon another local instance similar to our own, right "next door" in the #SanJuanIslands called sanjuans.life. Hello over there @jeff, @LeeOnOrcas, et al.! I also appreciate this line in their description: "Local conversation, globally federated with the rest of the world." Nice concise explanation of the concept of a local server. I might steal that! #SanJuans #SalishSea #PNW #Cascadia #SubduedSocial #LocalServer #LocalInstance

oh! All the guests were informed that while they can use it, the server is only for testing purposes and will only last for a certain period of time. Eventually, I'll move it to the cloud using a spare VPS with enough resources to make it permanent. #Mastodon #server #ownserver #cloud #localserver

I'm impressed with Mastodon's efficiency, so I invited some friends to test its limits on my simple infrastructure. I have a fixed IP and I'm using two Raspberry Pi 4s, both with 8GB RAM and SSD boot, running Docker without orchestration. One Pi handles the database and the other handles streaming and web. #Mastodon #raspberryPi #server #localserver

In addition to supporting my #LocalServer, I've also setup a monthly #CoffeeDonation to the #Mastodon project itself. Free and open-source doesn't pay for itself, the developers need our support, and if we all just donate a medium coffee's worth a month, it would be enough to keep this project alive in perpetuity. I'd rather see my #CoffeeDonation go to #FOSS projects than a billionaire's pocket. Help us #ReachCriticalMass it only costs a #Coffee
