yarn.social is a decentralized social network which allows users to create communities and interact with each other while maintaining privacy. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps to install yarn.social on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
yarn.social is containerized as a Docker image. Therefore, before we begin, we need to install Docker on our machine. To do this, run the following command:
sudo dnf install docker
Once the installation is completed, start the Docker service using the following command:
sudo systemctl start docker
Now, enable Docker to start on boot:
sudo systemctl enable docker
yarn.social is provided as a Docker image in the Docker Hub. To pull the latest image, run the following command:
sudo docker pull yarnsocial/yarn
We can now start the yarn.social container using the following command:
sudo docker run -d --name yarnsocial -p 3000:3000 yarnsocial/yarn
This command will start the container named yarnsocial and bind port 3000 of the container to port 3000 of the host. The -d option is used to run the container in the background, and the yarnsocial/yarn image is used to create the container.
To verify the installation of yarn.social, we can use the following command to check the status of the container:
sudo docker ps
This command will display a list of all running Docker containers. If the yarnsocial container is running, it should be listed here.
We can now access the yarn.social web interface by opening a web browser and pointing it to http://localhost:3000. If everything is working correctly, we should be able to create an account and start using yarn.social.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install yarn.social on Fedora CoreOS using Docker. With yarn.social, we can create private communities and interact with other users while maintaining our privacy.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
