If you get a follow from me, it's because I am migrating this account over to my instance.

One thing that REALLY sucks about FOSS is project abandonment.😬

@BeAware

The one that really sucks about FOSS is corporations taking full advantage of some projects and not supporting them financially... leading to project abandonment.

So....I keep thinking about this Sharkey migration and as I see it, I have 2 options:

  1. Attempt to re-migrate to beaware.live (my main domain) even though I briefly already had an instance there and risk potential federation issues.

  2. Migrate to beaware.social (new domain) and redirect beaware.live to it which shouldn't cause issues.

In all honesty, if I could be almost positive I could do the first option with little or no federation issues, I'd rather go that route. BUT, if I can't get a definitive answer on if that would work or not, the second option is always there....any advice?

@BeAware I’ve tried the first option before on a domain that I tootctl self-destructed but there were so many federation issues afterwards i had to migrate again.

Does anyone have a very detailed and comprehensive guide on how to scale up a Mastodon server?

I'm pretty noobish to Linux but I can follow guides if they have commands and stuff. Though, the only guides I could find were very light on the commands for certain steps.

My Sidekiq has been getting backed up every now and then with thousands of jobs. Of course they eventually clear out but I'd like to just mitigate it by adding more processes or whatever because I'm not even using 50% of my server resources🤷‍♂️

Any help would be much appreciated.

PS. My server is currently backed up so if you reply to this, I probably won't see it for a bit.😬

I'll write down some of the things that I do to my instances after I build them and post it on my blog and share. One of the biggest thing that makes for better performance if you have the RAM is to tune Postgres itself. Then after that, adjusting the number of Postgres connections for Mastodon and adjusting the number of Sidekiq connections for Mastodon.

Hehe. I haven't had the pleasure of seeing one in person yet, but I figure by the time I do... it will be covered in rust.
