Create and confirm your user

You can use the GoToSocial binary to also create, confirm, and promote your user account.

Run the following command to create a new account:

./gotosocial --config-path ./config.yaml admin account create --username some_username --email some_email@whatever.org --password SOME_PASSWORD

In the above command, replace some_username with your desired username, some_email@whatever.org with the email address you want to associate with your account, and SOME_PASSWORD with a secure password.

Run the following command to confirm the account you just created:

./gotosocial --config-path ./config.yaml admin account confirm --username some_username

Replace some_username with the username of the account you just created.

If you want your user to have admin rights, you can promote them using a similar command:

./gotosocial --config-path ./config.yaml admin account promote --username some_username

Replace some_username with the username of the account you just created.
