Mastodon is becoming popular these days but currently it's not possible to install it on cpanel according to them.

How do i make a request for cpanel to look into making mastodon work with cpanel.

How does this type of request work?


for those who don't know mastodon is like a twitter social media script. It's based on ruby on rails

Hey there! Currently, Mastadon only supports Ubuntu, and cPanel only supports MySQL 8 for Ubuntu installations:


That's the main blocker for a Mastadon system at this time.

I think using the link in my signature to open a feature request for Postgres support on Ubuntu would be all that is needed to get this working. Can you create that feature request, and then I can get it approved and bring it up with the team?
