Pixelfed is built using some of the oldest open source projects (php, mysql, redis, bootstrap)

It's often joked about, but boring old tech has a tendency to just work

Have you seen a @pixelfed instance with database problems, ever?

Just goes to show that it's not what you use, but how you use it

@dansup I wouldn't exactly consider "Bootstrap" to be amount "some of the oldest." (But I am old.)

@dansup @pixelfed

My self-hosted instance of Pixelfed had many database problems, actually.

I installed through YunoHost and had sooo many issues. Photos were not loading. Instances were not federating. I gave up and moved back to Mastodon.

The YunoHost installer needs some serious work. So does YunoHost in general. I recently moved over to RunTipi and I'm not looking back. Would love to have Pixelfed on TIpi so I can give it another shot.
