... and I’m 75% of the way through Wool right now
I know this is off topic, but wool is a great book! If you haven't watched the Apple TV show I'd recommend it as well; they definitely switch up the story a bit but I've enjoyed it so far.

What do you all think? I'm actually pretty impressed by the gameplay they showed off. Definitely going to wait for reviews but I'm hoping they pull it off. Would love for someone to finally deliver a good sci-fi game of this scale.
I run a web-dev consulting company on the side and I have a few apps that use Celery queues. The main reason you'd want to use celery is to handle more intensive tasks asynchronously in the background.
Some example from my apps:
- user requests a report: celery task is enqueued to generate the report as a PDF/CSV and email it to them
- admin adds a new user: celery task is enqueued to send an invite email out to the user, as well as some onboarding emails
- user requests to modify a large amount of items: multiple tasks are enqueued to update the items in batches of x amount.
I've got 3 "servers" at home right now.
- Raspberry Pi 4B 8gb: "RPINode0"
- hosts a gotosocial instance
- Raspbery Pi 4B 8gb: "RPINode1"
- hosts a few internal websites / APIs for staging (controlled via the docker API)
- hosts Home Assistant for me
- Unraid NAS: "Moonturtle"
- NGINX Proxy Manager: for exposing stuff to the internet
- Nextcloud: for file management and access. Most of my family uses this as opposed to Google Drive.
- Umami: website analytics
- Jellyfin: for watching movies and tv shows I've ripped
- Uptime Kuma: uptime monitoring and reporting
- DDNS updater: dynamic DNS updater so I can keep my DNS records up to date (don't have a static IP)
- Portainer: for managing docker instances on RPINode1
- MySQL/PostgreSQL/Redis: provides database services to all the stuff listed above
- Flower: for monitoring Celery queues used by a few of my applications.
- WireGuard: VPN for remote management of the server and access to the services I don't have exposed outside my network
If federation works the same on here as it does on Mastodon, then yes. When you defederate a server you can't see their users, communities, posts, comments, etc and they can't see yours 🙂
