I set up Pleroma last night!
For those who don't know, Pleroma is a federated social media network along similar lines to Mastodon (and thanks to the magic of ActivityPub, you can even communicate with Mastodon instances from Pleroma ones!), it operates in a similar manner to Twitter.
To be honest I'm not sure what I'll post their, but it will probably just be complaints, history things, and comments on various topics.
I am excited to start using it regardless, but I haven't gotten everything fully set up, so if anyone would like to join my instance (pleroma.jmashr.xyz) you'll have to email me at
I also got a new phone this week, a Pixel 3a. I intend to install some version of Linux on it, most likely Ubuntu Touch, so expect some posts about that at some point in the future.
