@moderation Question for mods & admins out there - does anyone host their own as a sandbox/playground, and what's your architecture for doing this? I want few and invitation-only collaborators to multiple AP-social web applications that we can experiment with as mods/admins as we design and refine community proposals.Primary needs are:- Accessible outside the walls of my living room/relatively stable (eg, doesn't go out if the power does, OTOH, I'm making no uptime promises .. 1/?

@moderation@activitypub.space @johannab@cosocial.ca When you say "sandbox/playground", I am thinking of a testing instance. I don't think a testing environment would need to federate. It probably wouldn't even need to be accessible outside my LAN. If I want to test connection to outside world, I would use VPN to temporarily expose the local instance on my laptop to WWW, that is Tailscale + VPS + NAT firewall rules. My base would be Docker, or an Ubuntu server in a VM.Main (production) instance, this, is powered by Misskey, and is located in Edmonton AB. CDN is in Ontario. But that isn't for testing.
