A social instance image allows you to easily set up a fediverse server, which federates using the OStatus or ActivityPub protocol. You will need:
< / p >
< ul class = "org-ul" >
< li > An old laptop, capable of booting from USB< / li >

< li > An ethernet patch cable< / li >
< li > A domain name of your own< / li >
< li > A dynamic DNS account< / li >
< / ul >
< p >
The installation process is the same as usual, with the only difference being that on initial setup it will go straight to the domain setup details for your instance. In summary:

Log into your internet router using a non-Tor browser (usually it's on an address like 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.254). Often port forwarding settings are together with firewall settings.
