Hey @_elena@mastodon.social 👋
Today I started a Experiment called #HumansOfTheFediverse where I try to text with at least one human of every country in the world.
If you reply, I can cross France (or Italy?) off my list 🤩

By the way: Thank you for your articles about #SelfHosting
Jellyfin installed. Let's see if it can pass the spouse usage test this week.
I've tried to put together a playlist of videos about self-hosting, you can watch at:
🌱 https://fedi.video/w/p/jmffEzZSCEbmtp2QdrRPXD
The playlist uses the broader definition of "self-hosting" including home hosting, managed hosting, VPSes etc. I don't know if there is any other collective term for all these?
If you know any good relevant PeerTube videos I'm missing, let me know 🙂
I am looking to host a **de-federated** mastodon instance for 300 to 500 people.
I wanted to know what kind server specs I should go for for this kind of project. should I go for 8gb or 4gb of RAM, roughly how many vCPUs/threads, etc..

Self-Hosting is not just a safety feature. It is a political act.

Inkwell - a multi-tenant long-form writing platform for the fediverse (open source, FEP-b2b8)
Wanted to share something with this community and see if it’s useful to anyone. Inkwell (inkwell.social) is an open source, multi-tenant social journaling platform built on ActivityPub. The goal is to fill the long-form writing gap in the fediverse in a way that’s accessible to non-technical users, not just developers who can spin up their own instance of WriteFreely or Ghost.
What it does: users sign up, write journal entries or articles, and those posts federate as Article objects per FEP-b2b8 with preview Notes so they render cleanly in Mastodon and other microblogging clients. You get a title, excerpt, and link rather than a decontextualized URL. Follows, boosts, and likes all work bidirectionally with Mastodon.
It’s ad-free, algorithm-free, and the code is open source on GitHub (github.com/stantondev/inkwell). The hosted instance is at inkwell.social if you want to try it, or you can self-host your own.
Some things that might interest this community: ActivityPub federation with HTTP signature verification, Stamps (emotional reactions) instead of generic likes, a tipping system called Postage for supporting writers, newsletter delivery, custom profile themes, and data import from other platforms. Currently working on improving comment edit propagation and post scope handling for better fediverse compatibility based on community feedback.
Would love to hear thoughts, especially from anyone who’s been looking for a long-form option in the fediverse or anyone interested in running their own instance. What’s working, what’s missing, what would make this more useful to the ecosystem?
