#### What is the default image upload size limit and how can I change it?
The default limit is 8 megabytes, however this can be changed by editing the following line in `mastodon/app/models/media_attachment.rb`:
` validates_attachment_size :file, less_than: 8.megabytes`
Change the 8 to another integer to change the limit.
#### How do I start my own instance?
See the [User Guide](../README.md), under the heading “Running Mastodon.”
