FlyToSocial

An attempt to run a GoToSocial instance at fly.io.

Testing has been held off due to concerns about surprise bills.

Please let me know if there are running problems!

Caution

• fly.io requires a credit card or a minimum of US$25 credit limit.
• FlyToSocial (this repo) expects to use up the free credit completely, but you can adjust it yourself
• I have modified the configuration for personal instance, again you can adjust it yourself
• Object storage is required for storing media files. I recommend looking at ripienaar/free-for-dev#IaaS
