Easily set up your PieFed instance using YunoHost! (apps.yunohost.org)

After 5 months of chipping away at it, PieFed is now an installable 'app' in the Yunohost store! It's been there for a couple of weeks actually but until this weekend it had a scary red exclamation mark because some automated tests hadn't ran yet. But that's gone now so I feel confident about recommending it to others.

Yunohost is a linux distro for servers that has a web gui for installing and managing services, that takes all the hassle out of self-hosting. How to get started with Yunohost.

@squirrel@piefed.kobel.fyi and @michael@piefed.chrisco.me have had good success setting up their instances already: https://piefed.social/c/piefed_meta/p/1561141/thanks-to-rimu-ericgaspar-and-tituspijean-yunohost-has-a-working-piefed-setup

What is sca4y to me is that it feels like an abstraction layer so you don't get access to the software you're hosting anymore, at least not that easy, so as soon as anything breaks you're at the mercy of YunoHost to expose what ever you need to get it working? I never used it myself, so I might be totally misinformed ^^
