New blog post!

In which I talk about how I joined the club of Fediverse admins with my own GoToSocial instance.

As botsin.space is going down I needed a place to host my bot, and so I decided to setup my own Fedi server. In the blog post I go through the requirements and the configs required to have your own instance in the Fediverse, and also mention the cool things you can do with it.

About this instance This is the personal instance of me, le STFN, a guy who likes to selfhost stuff, code in Python and write a blog: https://stfn.pl See more details

great post! I'm looking forward to reading more about your experience with it. I'm also running a GtS instance. I planned to use it mostly for bots that repost from bands' Instagram and Twitter accounts to the fediverse, but that hasn't really worked out.
