Hi all, we’ve noticed that some people who used the dockerlatesttag were already running 0.18.0-rc1 without realizing it. The backport release of 0.17.4 yesterday overwrote thelatesttag (because tobi is a boob), so folks pulling the Docker container again may run into issue.
In order to host Elk yourself you can use the provided Dockerfile to build a container with elk. Be aware, that Elk only loads properly if the connection is done via SSL/TLS. The Docker container itself does not provide any SSL/TLS handling. You’ll have to add this bit yourself. One could put Elk behind popular reverse proxies with SSL Handling like Traefik, NGINX etc.
An alternative to Phanpy, which also works with GoToSocial instances. At least this looks more robust than Phanpy. Gotta deploy one soon.

GTS_MEDIA_REMOTE_CACHE_DAYS: 2
