My first post about this got deleted on other community idk why. I need help setting up piefed on my server. I actually done it but on development (localhost). How can i make it production ? i use cloudflare tunnel. I also want to change logo and name of the site. i would be happy if someone helped me. Actually my main goal is to create my own reddit alternative (like a kind of local social media site) on my country i want to combine blorp and piefed i don't really want federation.

Hi, have you followed the basic setup guide?

If you are less tech savvy the docker installation might be the way to go for Piefed.

Each instance already has the capability of fully changing the logo and branding:

Federation is also controllable, you can just not federate, or block all:

As for the cloudflare tunnel, you should be able to set up an application that points to your local installation.

Finally, if you like the dev installation you set up, and want to move it to production, you can follow this guide , but I'd probably just create a new fresh instance.

Thanks for the answer. İ didn't have these options when i installed piefed first time. Is it because my setup just for development run ?. I guess i try the docker way for setting up. Thanks for your help. If i can't make it can i reply to this post again ? if you don't mind.
