    Looks like it wants a slightly higher ruby version than that is bundled with ubuntu 20. I guess we can install the ruby version it wants via rvm but this seems like an overkill to remove a warning.

    Solution: ./bin/tootctl media remove has an option --days which defaults to 7 days of not set. Our instance is only 3 days old. Since i did not set the flag it defaulted to 7 days. The system did everything right. There were no files as old or older than 7 days. Accordingly it did not delete anything. Computer smart. I was able to delete the cached media files.

    Hi @girish Thank You for reply. I think I found the most recent manual. Can you take a look at it? https://github.com/Coffeedon/Cofffee-Assets/blob/main/README.md

    @jdaviescoates I have indeed. I believe that something must have happened to my block storage, as I since noticed that it was no longer mounted at all. Unfortunately I think the images are simply not there at all. In terms of things I had personally shared, that is just a lost cause now I believe. No major harm done there. But regarding avatars and images from remote posts, is there some way that I can force Mastodon to re-download these rather than trying to pull from a local source that doesn't actually exist?

    @girish said in IPv6 for Mastodon - how?: @stormgrass This one - https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/networking/ipv6/how-to/enable/#on-existing-droplets . Did you do this? Ah, no, that point I missed. Am trying to fix it now, but the yaml indicated in the doc doesn't exist. So, I've created it and get hit with a syntax error, even though it's a copy of the contents specified. Anyway, I'll keep investigating, but I think you can mark this as resolved now. Thank you!

    YES. It does work. I have two different Mastodons using two different domains, and they are fine. Hope this helps anyone else with the same question.

    @girish Thank you, that did the trick! Not entirely sure how and why my install looked the way it did. I think I installed it first thing once it showed up in the app store, but back then it was still marked as unstable. Anyway, it's all good now, thank you!

    @girish Confirmed. I also found my description in the meta-tags. Okay, that's how it (the page design) works. Problem solved. Once again: Thank you very much! Greetings Eismer

    @robi hmmm, that's a good question. I was under the impression that some text is mandatory. But having tried it, Mastodon certainly allows it. And the RSS feed looks like this : { "title": "xxxxxxx: “”", "link": "https://xxxxxxxxxxxx", "pubDate": "Sun, 26 Sep 2021 19:56:22 +0000", "enclosure": { "url": "https://xxxxxxxxx.png", "length": "14690", "type": "image/png" }, "content": "", "contentSnippet": "", "guid": "https://xxxxxxx", "isoDate": "2021-09-26T19:56:22.000Z" }, So it works. Although my n8n workflow to crosspost to Twitter would likely break, but I will try that later when I'm feeling braver.
