Here's how I'm doing on setting up my own Mastodon instance:
- Deployed to Scalingo
- Set up SMTP server
- Set up SSL cert for HTTPS
- Works fine to create an account, post stuff etc.
But:
- FAILED to set up Amazon S3 storage, which sucks. Can't figure out the correct values for S3_REGION and S3_BUCKET, and there are no sample configs out there.
Damn it.
@maguireja I'm only using Amazon for storage and SMTP.
The app itself is deployed to Scalingo. Basically it's a one-click deployment tool. You click a button on github, enter a few details and boom, you have your app compiled and running.
@ant Awesome! will have to check it out
@ant what are you running your instance on? AWS?
