chaos.social customisations

chaos.social isn't running entirely vanilla Mastodon. This repository should cover most of our customisations:

• favicon contains our fancy fairydust-based favicon (thank you, @blinry!)
• images contain all our variations of the Mastodon shown in the lower left-hand corner of the page, most notably the default version carrying a fairydust (rocket), and a lot of versions with various pride flags. You can also find larger / SVG versions of our favicon there.
• pages contains the page we show during extended maintenance. It's a standalone HTML page to be served via any web server.
• patches contains any patches we apply to Mastodon on every update. We try not to apply patches to Mastodon – currently it's just a UI limitation on how many invites can be created at once.
• scripts contain various useful scripts for managing the administration side of chaos.social (scripts for the moderation side can be found in the bin directory of our meta.chaos.social). The scripts/install script is used to deploy the contents of this repo to the chaos.social server. The scripts/registration-limit.sh script was used when we limited the amount of new users per day; as Mastodon has no way of bulk-disabling invites (and invites are valid despite any sign-up limits), this script checks the daily sign-up limit and disables invites if the limit is reached, enabling them again the next day.
• themes contains our custom themes (custom and custom-wide). It also contains changes we make to the default themes, mostly working around the new purple theme colour (we prefer the old blue one).
