GoToSocial is still in alpha and **may be unstable**. You can read [the roadmap](https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/blob/main/ROADMAP.md) to check the progress of GoToSocial's features.
|
|
|
|
GoToSocial require a **dedicated domain (or subdomain) name**, for example: gotosocial.example.com
|
|
|
|
This package is not-working SSO (single-sign on) or LDAP integration.
|
|
You will have a separate account from the rest of your Yunohost server, potentially with a different username and password.
|
|
|
|
GoToSocial **does not provide a user interface**.
|
|
You will need to use a Mastodon-compatible client such as [Tusky](https://tusky.app/) on Android, [Feditext](https://fedi.software/@Feditext) for iOS or an instance of [Semaphore](https://semaphore.social/) on the Web.
