Micah Ilbery :sloth_coffee:<p>I'm having some serious issues with 2FA on my whole server but specifically what's biting me now is my <a href="https://slothsneed.coffee/tags/gotosocial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GoToSocial</span></a> instance. Does anyone have any suggestions one how to get to my settings page if I can't get 2FA to work? I tried using the CLI to change the password which did change the password but it doesn't remove / reset 2FA. Is there anything I can do from the CLI that I'm missing?</p><p>Also if anyone has any suggestions on what could be going wrong in general with my server I'd also love to hear that too. I'm running TrueNAS and have tried adding more NTP servers in my settings and I can see anything obviously wrong there. Idk. I'm getting very frustrated with it all.</p><p><a href="https://slothsneed.coffee/tags/gotosocialadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GoToSocialAdmin</span></a> <a href="https://slothsneed.coffee/tags/truenas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrueNAS</span></a> <a href="https://slothsneed.coffee/tags/2fa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>2FA</span></a></p>

dead instance<p>So, I built a new <a href="https://suigow.xyz/tags/gotosocial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GoToSocial</span></a> instance and have migrated back. A few things have brought me back since my last GoToSocial instance:</p><ul><li><strong>Editing of statuses</strong>. This is one of the big ones and it arrived in v0.18.0. In the past, I had to delete and repost -- a lot since I make a lot of mistakes. Being able to edit is a big thing.</li><li><strong>MFA</strong>. More security is always best.</li><li><strong>Ivory support</strong>. Nothing that the GoToSocial folks control, but <span class="h-card"><a href="https://tapbots.social/@ivory" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>ivory</span></a></span> finally got support for alphanumeric post ID's which means that I can finally use it with GoToSocial.</li></ul><p>This is on top of previous things that I liked about GoToSocial:</p><ul><li><strong>Ease of maintenance</strong>. It's so easy to install, so easy to maintain and easy to backup.</li><li><strong>Low system requirements</strong>. I can run it on a low cost VPS.</li><li><strong>Pretty profile page</strong>. I really like the profile page layout on GoToSocial vs <a href="https://suigow.xyz/tags/mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a>. The GoToSocial profile is clean and is completely focused on the person. The Mastodon profile is a bit messy with instance stuff in the left and right columns; and profile in the center.</li></ul><p>There's some stuff I'm still looking forward on GoToSocial. The biggest one would be the ability to prune posts, both <a href="https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/issues/1442" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">personal</a> and for <a href="https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/issues/1919" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">instance</a>.</p><p><a href="https://suigow.xyz/tags/gotosocialadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GoToSocialAdmin</span></a> <a href="https://suigow.xyz/tags/mastoadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmin</span></a> <a href="https://suigow.xyz/tags/fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fediverse</span></a></p>
dead instance<p>I found <a href="https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/issues/3094" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">this issue</a> about follower counts. I'm going to wait a few days to see if my follower count fixes itself.

dead instance<p>The setup of this instance <a href="https://suigow.xyz" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://suigow.xyz</a> was a first: I setup it up while on the road. This <a href="https://suigow.xyz/tags/gotosocial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gotosocial</span></a> instance was setup at the Centurion Lounge in the Seattle-Tacoma airport using my Thinkpad while I was waiting for my flight home -- and after eating my veggies and desserts.

Ok interesting, I started through the my follow list on my alt account and manually refollowing people. So it seems my follow list didn't fail to import but rather got hung up somewhere else along the way. Because the accounts were all marked as "Pending" but when I clicked unfollow then follow again it went through. Still not sure what's happening there but at least it's more troubleshooting information. Everything else seems to work great. I've checked back and forth the timelines of my accounts and they match pretty well nowadays. I'm 🤏 this close to trying to do a full migrate but I'm still a bit nervous as I don't really know what I'm doing.
