if you are planning to use Freedombone to set up a Pleroma instance, please be aware that Freedombone have extensively modified the default configuration, to among other things, use an arbitrary domain whitelist.

their default configuration limits you to a list of extremely arbitrary instances, including stuff like “toot.wales” which is exactly what you think it is.

every single mainstream Pleroma instance is not present on their allowlist, and many mainstream Mastodon instances are also not present on their allowlist. it appears to be derived from the maintainer’s personal instance whitelist.

because of this, we do not suggest using Freedombone’s packaging of Pleroma. these changes have not been reviewed by the Pleroma developers and we would never ship a configuration with an arbitrary whitelist as default.

WE WILL NOT BE PROVIDING SUPPORT FOR FREEDOMBONE USERS BECAUSE OF THESE MODIFICATIONS.

if you want an alternative method for setting up Pleroma easily, look at @cloud who do not impose broken defaults on you.
