The more I use @phanpy the more I love it. One of my favourite features is the catch-up tool, which allows you to fetch all posts within the last X hours and rank them however you want.
Oldest first is particularly useful to catch up with folks in very different timezones. You can also rank by number of replies, boosts... even by "density" of information (denser posts: longer ones or those with multimedia content). You can even group posts by author.
I'm currently trying to migrate a #mastodon server from masto.host to self-hosted and having problems (I already shut down the server, so I'm posting from an old account).
Does somebody know which files in the backup are which in the mastodon migration guide?
I'm also having trouble with restoring the PostgreSQL backup ('pg_restore: error: connection to server on socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432" failed: FATAL: Peer authentication failed for user "mastodon"').
Thanks for any help!
(It would be nice if someone could boost this, because given that this is an old account, I don't think many people would see this post otherwise.)
