I'm probably an early bird but the year draws to a close which means it's finally "quality time" w/ wifey (including #digitaldetoxing). I wish everyone of you and your families a merry Christmas and a happy new year! Stay safe! See you in 2024!

@stesnac well done and very helpful, thanks!One suggestion, when not passing the data directory in a correct way, the rc file tells that the service has been started even it didn’t which results in a missleading and confusing output.

@stefano unfortunately a common issue nowadays. Just throw more resources on it - infinity resources and power!

@stefano reminds me of a customer when working in a DC where he managed his system on his own, had 64G RAM and his Java application running on Wildfly ran out of memory. I asked if I might have a look at it before upgrading and the application came bundled with a wildfly instance where the JVM was limited to 2GB XmX :)

@stefano thanks, created upstream PR to provide a better nginx default template for proper ssl/tos configuration (A+ on SSLLabs) because people often tend to just copy examples.

@rolle Unfortunately, I cannot agree with this, especially with regard to a possible trend. I think this highly depends on each users follower base. While this might apply to your or my one this will probably not apply to casual users or even influencers ones.For us within our tech circle the follower base has the same interests and thinks in the more or less same way but when having a look at the casual users they do not even know or understand what ActivityPub, Fediverse or Mastodon is.Fediverse is (unfortunately) still a mess. People google for "Fediverse" and will find within the first entries a documentation about the Fediverse or services like Lemmy, Mastodon, Pleroma, diaspora etc. which directly leads to a "wtf" moment for a non tech user - the user is lost in this moment. This was the experience for him. If the user still wants to take a try, he needs to understand, that this is a federated service. But how can he find an instance, now? Some first match instances even do not even offer sign ups anymore...If a user even solves this it comes to a (IMHO) bad UI which is providing too many information and is just unusable. I still think without your birdUI I would not use a Mastodon instance anymore. The next thing is to find interesting things.If I try to find by the default search something regarding the Tesla hashtag, I tells me that there were just two profiles within the last two days using this. Oh, crap!Okay, let's get back to the common user base of a services. It's a chicken egg problem, you get users by providing content, but the users must create the content. This is where Influencers step in - they provide the most common content on X or even Instagram (even we tech related people do not understand this), but this is how they gain followers and users. But whey are they doing this? Because they're getting paid in two ways:- Ads for the products they're presenting- For post impressions of their content from the platformLet's just imagine I would have 100.000 followers here on Mastodon, the instance I'm hosted on wouldn't pay me any money which means that there is no need to post anything or to put efforts into it without any monetarizations. At this time we come back to "free", "open", "decentralised" mind.Where we can also see this when we just compare the messenger Signal VS WhatsApp...Sorry, just my 2 cents on the Sunday and also a big thanks for your BirdUI which is the only reason I can use Mastodon :)

@stefano @stesnac I love those simple but robust setups. How the current performance of #snac2?

@stefano @stesnac I see, just transmitting the data on APIs saves data, bandwidth etc. which can quickly mess up such a little system
