## Disclaimers / important information
## Important points to read before installing
1. **Mastodon** require a dedicated **root domain**, eg. mastodon.domain.tld
1. The user choosen during the installation is automatically created in Mastodon with admin rights
1. At the end of the installation a mail is sent to the user with the automatically generated password
