I'm seeing lots of interest in spinning up Mastodon servers, and that's awesome!

Why not learn from the pros? @aurynn has written an excellent series of posts on cloudisland.nz's architecture:

It's fun to spin up a $5/mo cloud node and try to roll your own, but https://masto.host/ offers plans at the $6/mo price range that will let you focus on using your instance rather than setting it up :) #MastoAdmin
