My #Mastodon build on a laptop with 8 GB of RAM failed.
This is a complicated app to build from source, and there are many points of failure.
This time the error was something about not enough swap space. I have 1 GB swap and 8 GB RAM.
How does anybody ever successfully install and configure one of these servers?
