Pleroma
-
Four years running on this. I hope it can come to fruition soon as I want to make an instance but would rather use Pleroma (more so the akkoma fork) instead of mastodon since it's much more kind on resources and has several features I prefer.
I'd love to use Cloudron to set it up but if the timeline of this thread is an indicator I might be better off just trying to set up Akkoma via docker.
-
An activity pub implementing federated social network (like Mastodon): https://pleroma.social/
Has the advantage of being written in elixir and having very light server requirements vs Mastodon.
@heliostatic Pleroma is a good suggestion.
I believe Pleroma sprang into being as a result of Social Justice Warriors taking over and banning people from Mastodon. From what I know of Pleroma, it tends to have users that are more based.
What I would like to hear is how Pleroma compares with Element, and why people would rather use Pleroma than Matrix.

@Ovadex You can modify the mastodon packaged repo by updating it to akkoma fork, benefiting from the work already done.
@robi I never even considered that as a possibility. Hopefully it's simple to do as I'm not a developer. lol
@LoudLemur I don't really see the two being all that comparable.
Matrix is more akin to Discord. There are separate rooms and voice/video chat. It's not really a micro-blogging platform.

@Ovadex I'm packaging GoToSocial - which is compatible with pleroma and Mastodon AND uses even less resources than pleroma does. If you wanna test, I can link you

@LoudLemur interesting article "criticising" or describing issues with Pleroma and explaining a 'new' fork
Akkomahttps://coffee-and-dreams.uk/development/2022/06/24/akkoma.htmlhttps://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma/src/branch/develop
I noticed it because
Disroot(https://disroot.org/en) have announced they are adopting Akkoma.No point really. Just sharing and maybe it suggests attention on packaging Pleroma is not wise. Others may disagree.

@yusf It's been REALLY stable, but there are a couple small upstream bugs. That said once I finish rewriting the automated tests (requirement for store submission) I plan to put it up. You can install and test it right now though by following the instructions in the repo though

@timconsidine I have understood from several users that Akkoma is a good choice for self hosting single user servers for the Fediverse. I would love to see a package for Cloudron with it.

Create an App Wishlist post for it?
