I need help from the fedizens: it's been a while I migrated my mastodon instance from a VPS to my own home server, but I am having some problems, mainly pertaining to federation (I can't reach unknown accounts and servers when I search for them, making it virtually impossible to follow new people) and I simply cannot upload images or videos. on both cases an error message just slides in from the left saying "500" and nothing else.

I am running v4.1.2+glitch using the LinuxServer.io docker image. any help is appreciated, I'm at my wit's end with this. thanks!

my mastodon instance can't show images from other people, doesn't let me upload images to my posts, can't search for accounts on the larger Fediverse and won't let me follow accounts on unknown servers. every action described above returns a 500 error. I need help, I don't know what to do. 😢​😢​😢​ #Help #MastoHelp #SelfHost #SelfHosted #SelfHosting #Docker #FediHelp

I need help, fedizens. ​

first attempt to run my own @pixelfed instance on a Docker stack seemed successful, after many issues and resolutions to them. the stack is running, no errors on the logs of the containers. but when I access the URL on my browser, I get ERROR 500. when I access via the local IP and port, it opens the Pixelfed site, but on a "Sorry, this page isn't available" page.

I am honestly lost right now.
