After experiencing a number of issues with GoToSocial, we today set up a second server with a standard installation of Mastodon. Try it for yourself at https://confediverse.fragdenbund.ch/

Our test server is up and running! This evening I gave it a fresh attempt, using Go instead of Ruby and Docker instead of Ansible, I am much more comfortable with the solution. See details in the project page.

I'm running into errors, something with nginx libraries missing, deploying the Ansible script to a clean Ubuntu 20 server. See my rejoha branch. Besides that, thanks for all the ideas in the pad. Keep em coming, and have an ✨🥁⏱️ excellent day II!

After a rigorous workshop - thanks for your attention & insights! - I'm researching issues of journalists in the Fediverse, while trying to suggest some basic improvements to the UX https://github.com/tuskyapp/Tusky/issues/2936

We will have a get-together at Bajour at 16:00 (UTC+1) to introduce Mastodon and shortlist burning questions.

We walked around and found beautiful data just floating in the September air.

We have an initial sample dataset with an agreed upon schema, and are testing a cleaning and pre-processing workflow in Python.
