@diegokehrle Hey since you were interested in setting up a Bonfire instance — this one’s for you! 👇

For those wondering what kind of server is needed for Bonfire, see this thread: https://indieweb.social/@bonfire/114714550261653975

@BjornW@quillmatiq
The resources your Bonfire instance needs mostly depend on:
- How many local users are active at the same time
- How many remote users follow local users (and from how many instances)
- How many distinct remote users are followed by local users
- The volume and frequency of posts and other activities
Unless you already have a dedicated server, a flexible virtual server can be a good option so you can scale RAM/CPU as your instance grows, e.g: https://www.hetzner.com/cloud/

@BjornW@quillmatiq Apologies for missing that! The technical answer is that you can run it on most devices (including a Raspberry Pi) but the honest answer is that for a snappy experience you want to have enough RAM available (say 8 GB or more, depending of course on how big the instance will be).

@dansup how could we have bonfire servers on fedidb be linked to the correct app? 🙏 https://fedidb.com/servers/bonfire.cafe

@johannab Sounds interesting! If you're looking for support while setting up a server, you can join us in this chat room: https://matrix.to/#/%23bonfire-tech:matrix.org

@eobet yeah, hopefully a FEP (fediverse enhancement proposal) or ActivityPub protocol update will be able to improve this in future

@eobet Our ActivityPub code does *some* automatic fetching of threads, but we also give users control over that, by including options to fetch replies per nested discussion branch or for an entire thread

@baslow it will :)
We disabled federation on campground because it is intended to be a testing instance, as we do not plan to have a flagship one

@devSJR FYI federation is not enabled on the campground as we don't want it to become a "flagship instance".
And thanks for the report about ORCID! It was not meant to be enabled on that instance as we have https://openscience.network dedicated to testing the Open Science flavour. We'll try to fix the issue there in the next release.
