I am thinking about hosting my own Mastodon server from home on a Raspberry Pi (Pi4 8GB)?

  1. Are there good tutorials out there?
  2. What's the annual cost just to host yourself?

  1. Not that I know of, but most likely. If you’re new to hosting, maybe look for automated tools that does the heavy lifting for you - Like how Lemmy can be installed by copying and pasting a single command.
  2. Beyond power/internet, you can host for free. Subdomains can be free, I assume you have the hardware and pay for power and internet anyways.

I have a Pi4 running a mastodon branch, the “dreaded capacity hog” synapse and much more. Never had any issues with capacity. I know people who set up Pi’s as CDN relief servers for PeerTube video transfers.

I suppose people have different experiences.

There goes my hope of Google being named after gabagool.

I’m an average Flathub enjoyer, there because Canonical try to force me to use o’Snap.

It’s doable in Firefox, you just need an extension that adds it and then enable custom tweaks through an obscure file before then removing the original tab strip by hacking the interface with CSS. 🤷‍♂️
