Happy Thursday, everyone! I hope you all have a great day 🙂
If I set my Mastodon or Sharkey/Misskey to Limited Federation Mode, can followers see my posts or do I need to add the instance they're on to the allowed list?
Catha I made an account and never bern abke to post, comment, nothing. Staff@mastodon.social is neve rresponding my emails. So i tried deleting my .social account and can't even login on that server ...
admin ow? thats to bad did you tried this https://mastodon.social/auth/password/new
Catha I tried everything. But not even the emails to renew pw reach my mailbox. And i am absolutelly 100% sure i made no mistake there since i copy/paste to avoid typos.
admin Okay. Not good, nice an weird
IkkleGemzUniverseCatha That instance is very busy and I often hear bad stuff. It's weird that you can't do anything though.
I love Sharkey and Misskey the most due to their appearance, features and how easy they are to customize (for the most part), but the app I love most is Ivory, which is for Mastodon (which I am having issues trying to get storage working on) 😂. If only there was a version of Ivory for Misskey and Sharkey.
Does anyone know how to set up DigitalOcean Spaces S3 storage on Mastodon? I'm having trouble getting it to work.
admin
is, still struggle for me to. sorry
IkkleGemzUniverseadmin I guess I'm glad it's not just me 😂
I've just read that you can customise the character limit on Misskey. Does anyone know how to do it? I can't find any instructions.
admin
If you’re an admin (or running your own instance)
You change it in the server config file.
Typical steps:
Open your Misskey config (usually .config/default.yml or similar)
Look for a setting like:
maxNoteLength: 3000
Change it to whatever you want (e.g. 5000, 10000)
Rebuild/restart Misskey:
npm run build
sudo systemctl restart misskey
⚠️ Notes:
Some older versions had it more “hard-coded,” but newer versions expose it in config.
Federation: other servers may still truncate or reject overly long posts.
IkkleGemzUniverseadmin I managed to do it on Sharkey but not Misskey. I added the setting to the config.
That's The Potato Lab finished. I wasn't too sure about this one at first but I eventually got into it. It has some funny moments and the ending was fun too. 🙂
