Hi fediverse,I could use some advice, is there a way to "self destruct" a GoToSocial instance I selfhost ? similar to how Littlefedi does it. I have no issue with taking the GTS instance offline but I've heard it is bad fediverse etiquette to let a deleted instance, posts linger without a server to connect to.
@greylinux@mylittlefedi.capella-ember.uk Very timely. How does one 'self destruct' a LittleFedi instance. ? I got an error saying I could not delete the single remaining user (who was an Admin) buit would like to do it properly.
its a command line option

but I would check with @stefano@bsd.cafe whether this is what you need in your circumstance, but i suspect it is.
@greylinux@mylittlefedi.capella-ember.uk @stefano@bsd.cafe Great. Will do that now with my short lived test instance. Thanks.
