Hey everyone, I am looking to change the domain name of my self hosted instance and had a question.
I used the Ansible installation instructions originally and am now curious if it would be as easy as editing the “hosts” file and the “config.hjson” file before running the playbook again?
Will this overwrite the necessary configurations and grab a new SSL while keeping the content of the instance intact?
My main concern is breaking federation.
Thanks for any insight.
I’m surprised federation isn’t based on asymmetric cryptography. Let the public/private keys identify instances, as opposed to domains that risk being blocked by governments or bought by malicious third parties if the instance owner forgets to prolong it.
With that, implementing a change in domain names would be simple.
