How I started my GoToSocial instance in the Fediverse

I have one too. Its arguably simpler than Mastodon but works just like it. Uses a LOT less data too.

Quality post, with plenty of useful and good advice.

I'm happy to see sqlite being recommended - I think people don't realise how resilient and performant a database it is.

Very surprising to hear you need to restart GoToSocial to add new users!

Oh no, botsin.space is going away? :(
