Setup fedi.cress.space
Having my own ActivityPub instance to experiment with sounded like a good idea.
To reduce time consuming maintenance I decided to try running gotosocial.org on fly.io.
The setup currently running on fedi.cress.space is public on github: https://github.com/mfa/fedi-cress-space.
Some context to the setup/config:
For persistence between deployments a volume is needed. 1GB is the minimal size and should be enough for quite a while.
I disabled public registration, so registration has to happen via
flyctl ssh console
.To not have the hassle with setting up email, I disabled it.
Updating should be easy by changing the version in
bootstrap.sh
, run it, and deploy again. Time will tell if this is the case.The smallest instance size available (shared-cpu-1x 256MB) seems to be enough:
