It's taking its sweet time booting, But guess I'm only going to mess around with it for like 10 mintues before stop using it so it's alright. Maybe might get my Video Editing Team to use it as I know the suggested limit of users is like 5
Going to show the Server off to my girlfriend and we will see about hosting a local server for anyone that would like to join from the Southampton area.
Glad to say we are booting up the actual server now, Will be cancelling my test server after the first month unless I feel I need to keep testing (possibly good to).
If anyone has family/friends who use threads and are unlikely to switch over to mastodon, direct them to turn on fediverse sharing in their threads account, it's not on by default.
@atomicpoet That is actually quite a good point of why he wouldn't have been able to run his own Instance. Guess I just wished he used Mastodon or something but guess they trust META more than a Random Mastodon instance ran by someone
Can I block ALL threads.net accounts here? I don't want to see those folks here. The old setup was clean, but they are now hijacking my timeline with their shity political posts. I'm here for tech, Linux, and infosec. I don't give a flying fuck about the president or anyone else from Meta's network. Go back to X or Threads. Stop hijacking this platform.

You might saw my post that I'm looking for another Fediverse instance which bans Threads as I disagree with "giving Threads a chance".
Now, I finally found an instance, social.linux.pizza which welcomes tech related content and does suspend Threads.net
This is probably my last post on this account so follow my new profile @fosserytech if you don't want to miss my future posts.
I'll migrate there today or tomorrow (depending on how it goes).
