Mastodon is a decentralized social network. Users can follow each other across different instances, creating a federated network. folk.zone runs a Glitch-Soc fork with additional features and improvements.

• folkzone-social-web: Main Rails application serving the web interface
• folkzone-social-sidekiq: Background job processor for asynchronous tasks
• folkzone-social-streaming: Real-time streaming API for live updates
• folkzone-social-db: PostgreSQL database for persistent data
• folkzone-social-redis: Redis for caching and job queues

The Mastodon instance uses custom fonts mounted from ./mastodon-fonts. Email is handled via Resend SMTP. Federation is enabled with ActivityPub.
