How to install Mastodon in docker (even easier imo, 2024)

A step-by-step guide on installing Mastodon via Docker, configuration tailored especially for 2024

I’m not sure if I still want this, considering that Mastodon takes up so much resources. Gotosocial alone is a little bloated for my taste, worse I suppose will be Mastodon.

Getting A Local Mastodon Setup In Docker - These Yaks Ain’t Gonna Shave Themselves

This is the first in probably a series of posts as I dig into the technical aspects of mastodon. My goal is to get a better understanding of the design of ActivityPub and how mastodon itself is designed to use ActivityPub. Eventually I want to learn enough to maybe do some hacking and create some of the experiences I want that mastodon doesn’t support today.

The first milestone is just getting a mastodon instance set up on my laptop.

Docker Crontab

It’s crontab but in a container. No ports. No GUI. No BS. Just cron in a container. Why? Because someone decided that setting up cron jobs the normal way wasn’t edgy enough. Now you get to deal with Docker AND cron at the same time. You’re welcome.

I assume this will make the crontab so much easier to backup and restore in a new system.
