Subject: Re: [Linux-aus] Grant application: Setting up and operating a
'Mastodon' node for the Australian online community

 

Hi Rus,

 

The VM would be running in a Sydney datacentre for the sake of speed and
low latency. All Toots (as Mastodon calls the Tweets) are public, so I
do not see a benefit (yet) of running the service outside Australia for
privacy reasons. 

 

My understanding is that Mastodon is largely compatible with GNU Social.
The federated architecture allows both user groups to interact with each
other. In addition, many users find the Mastodon GUI more appealing. 

 

From the ops perspective, Docker makes Mastodon super-easy to run and
operate on the server-side.

I think that the amount of money is reasonable and this could provide a
good 
benefit to the community.

But I would like to know what the benefits are over GNU Social?  Is it
easier 
to install and manage?  Last time I checked GNU Social was difficult to
install, 
to achieve the goals of replacing Twitter and giving users control I
think 
that being at least as easy to install as Wordpress would be a
requirement.

Would it be better to have this run on a VM on one of the LA servers?
