This is in the “Hello World” category.
In preparation for opening my own PieFed server, today I got a test server running, piefed.lerman-development.com. This is my first post from my test instance to a remote instance. I hope it works. Apologies for the test post.
I’m still working out some issues (PieFed logo doesn’t appear, can’t enable markdown editor) and I still need to do more configuration, but I think it’s getting there. I also don’t know how anything is supposed to work, which makes testing a bit difficult.
Eventually, I plan to bring feddit.online back as a PieFed instance (it used to be a KBIN instance).
My user name on pifed.social is Jerry@Piefed.social.
Welcome aboard!

Very nice. FYI you can also visit the playground magazine on piefed.social for test posts

My static image issue was due to an error in the root specification of the static route in nginx, plus I needed to give 755 permissions to several directories, in case anyone else hits this issue:
sudo chmod 755 /home/piefed sudo chmod 755 /home/piefed/pyfedi sudo chmod 755 /home/piefed/pyfedi/app sudo chmod 755 /home/piefed/pyfedi/app/static sudo chmod 755 /home/piefed/pyfedi/app/static/images
