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 root domain**, for example: gotosocial.domain.tld.
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 or an instance of [Pinafore](https://pinafore.social/) on the Web.
### Things to know

You can login to [gts.superseriousbusiness.org/admin](https://gts.superseriousbusiness.org/admin/) to administrate your GoToSocial instance.
[The source code of this administration panel](https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial-admin) is available on github.

#### Configuration
You can configure your instance using the config panel integrated in Yunohost, you will find it in the admin interface of your Yunohost by following these steps:
