I would love to be able to follow my friends on Instagram via ActivityPub, without getting swamped with other stuff and/or ads.
@super_user_do I’m running an pixelfed instance just for the pictures I have taken over the past 15 years. Some are nudes, some are artistic porn, but I always set them to #nsfw, so they should appear blurred in other people’s timelines. Have you set your client to always show cw’d images directly?
Let’s see…
PHP memory limit up to 2048
Number of workers to 20
The workers now run every 5 minutes instead of 10 (cron)
Increased the values of pm.max_children , pm.start_servers, pm.min_spare_servers and
pm.max_spare_servers.
I’m running this setup on Yunohost in a VM with 2 cores and a total of 16 GB RAM. Currently only 7 or 8 GB are used, that’s including Mastodon on the same server.
Giving the friendica instance more resources really helped, the standard settings are too restrictive.

I first struggled with my single-user Friendica instance after I added all followed accounts from Mastodon. Very slow, sometimes even not responding at all.
After tweaking some settings the site is running quite smootly. So it depends on the setup.
Yes, Mastodon out-of-the-box is faster on most machines, but Friendica can be made very usable.
Via clients like WhaleBird or Fedilab, I don’t feel any difference.

@taladar Yes, I noticed that and edited the post after a few seconds. Seems that did not get forwarded to Lemmy.
