It’s called docker. Linuxserver.io offers very close to “mastodon in a box”. https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/mastodon
I use Unraid as my host OS with a Windows 11 gaming vm. If you say at my computer you would never know it’s not native. I can shutdown/reboot windows and it doesn’t affect any of my home server applications, including a mastodon instance.
It blows my mind that in my jurisdiction dogs need to be registered, up to date on shots, leashed, kept on your property. Cats are a free for all. They can be left outside and are free to trespass. They kill over 2 billion birds a year in the US alone. Cats piss on everything on my property, use my yard as a litter box. I had to take down my bird feeders because it was a death trap. And there is NOTHING I can do about it. Fuck cats. For good measure, fuck irresponsible dog owners, too.
