About the Servers

By Mastodon, TurtleIsland.blog, TurtleIsland.social, WordPress

Turtle Island has one Mastodon Fediverse instance with two servers and one WordPress web server

  1. The TurtleIsland.social Mastodon servers are in Masto.host, which is professionally managed Mastodon hosting at its best. These servers (Mastodon and database servers) are scalable to virtually any number of active users, extremely reliable and the most suitable for celebrity or high demand user accounts.
  2. TurtleIsland.blog and YehudaRothschild.com are on a DigitalOcean dedicated virtual server with 2 Intel vCPU, 4GB RAM and 70GB NVMe SSD. The software is Ubuntu Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP, and WordPress.

All remote server access and design work is done with Apple Mac M* Series systems. Image and graphics editing are done with GIMP and Inkscape.

All Linux and Fediverse software used is free open source. The Minamaze Pro WordPress theme is licensed. All WordPress plugins used are free versions.

Thanks!
-Yehuda
