Question. If a media organisation wants to host a single-user (or perhaps a handful of own users, one per topic) instance mainly to publish to the #Fediverse (mostly #Mastodon and #Pixelfed in practice), what is then the best server software?
A full Mastodon server might be a bit overkill, is #Akkoma or #Pleroma a lighter solution for this particular use case?
The server would have to make posts that are both fully Mastodon and Pixelfed compatible (so include CW’s, image alt texts etc.)
@LeonardoDiOttio I’m running a single user Calckey server on the cheapest hetzner arm box and it is working well. They have a nice script for install and updates that sets up nginx and certificates etc.
@kris Great. And can that produce posts that are, at the surface, indistinguishable from a Mastodon or Pixelfed post, complete with compatible CWs etc?
@kris It’s just that I believe the ActivityPub protocol doesn’t natively support Content Warnings (yet) and so Mastodon has put it into another field that other servers may interpret differently (or some such).
