This guide was pretty out of date and also contained outright errors which were never true. I have updated it.

In some VPS templates, they are not installed by default.

Add our mastodon instance :) Thanks !

Disable DHE ciphers. We don't loose any compatibility as we already use TLS 1.2, and ECDH is faster and safer.

This is the conf I use here : https://tls.imirhil.fr/https/mstdn.io

Added mastodon.network.

Unless something changed recently I have no clue why this said that direct posts do not federate because they do.

s/rails/rake/

If the file package is not installed, we get "Validation failed: File has contents that are not what they are reported to be" when upload media.

[SKIP CI]

Missing -u parameter to specify the mastodon user.

As far as I'm aware, my instance should be supporting IPv6 now. Was an error on my part that it wasn't working before.

Add my own instance

must be added to the Sidekiq invokation in your systemd file

The pull queue will handle link crawling, thread resolving, and OStatus
processing. Such tasks are more likely to hang for a longer time (due to
network requests) so it is more sensible to not make the "in-house" tasks
wait for them.

Updated list with lots of instances that have been added to instances.mastodon.xyz but not this list

Closes GH-745.
