PleromaPi – Run your own distributed social network on RaspberryPi November 5, 2020

Hey all,

The latest Raspeberry Pi I am releasing is a distro that lets you flash and run social network called Pleroma. Its part of a group federated social networks known as the Fediverse. There are about 4 million users to date, although this does not compare to the giants today, its enough that the software is fairly mature and it looks and feel like networks you know, and there are enough people to follow and get a decent feed to read. It also mean you can use it for different uses not covered by mainsteam social networks.

Requirements

1. A domain name that redirects to your Raspsberry Pi – you need a domain name because communication from server-to-server happens on HTTPs, which needs a domain for the signature to work. And laso because usernames are in format @[email protected] .
2. Raspberry Pi prefrebly 3B+ , 4B and above.
3. Pi should be connected to internet.
