Welcome!
This is great to see! gnusocial.no was my home too in its previous life! Keep up the good work!
I now use a Mastodon account https://mastodon.social/@lohang
I think GNUSocial can federate with Mastodon via some ActivityPub plugin. But I haven’t been able to interact with most of the existing instances. I suspect they haven’t enabled it.
Thank you!
To use the activitypub you need to run the ‘nightly’ version.
I tried to get that set up, but failed due to some weird error.
And I asked on irc, but no one had a fix for it at the time.
But last week I upgraded the SSD on the server (I was running out of space),
and that means I can now spin up more VM’s, I plan on doing that now and get nightly set up in a separate VM.
Then when I have it running with nightly version I can just point to that VM.
That way I can leave the current vm untouched, and test what I need without breaking anything.
I do have gnusocial nightly running in a new vm. I’m currently working on moving that one over to the server, and then proxy all the traffic from the original gnusocial vm over to this new vm.
I hope to have it done within a couple of days.
