Tl;dr: Regardless of whether you're using SQLite or Postgres as your DB driver, you most likely you want the regular version without `moderncsqlite` in the name.
However, if you're on FreeBSD or OpenBSD, use the `moderncsqlite` version instead. See the table below:
However, if you're on FreeBSD, 32-bit Linux or 32-bit ARM, we recommend using the `moderncsqlite` version instead.

#### FreeBSD
`moderncsqlite` version currently recommended, though you might have success with the regular WASM SQLite version.
If running with regular WASM SQLite and having instability or memory issues, the following settings *may* help:
```yaml
db-max-open-conns-multiplier: 0
db-sqlite-journal-mode: "TRUNCATE"
db-sqlite-synchronous: "FULL"
```
#### 32-bit
`moderncsqlite` version is needed, as performance with regular WASM SQLite is not guaranteed when running on 32-bit.
Remote media processing will likely not work with reasonable performance, so you should set the following config variables to prevent download of remote media onto your instance:
```yaml
media-remote-max-size: 0
media-emoji-remote-max-size: 0
```

## Getting Started
## Installing GoToSocial
Check our [releases page](https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/releases) and our [getting started](https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/getting_started/) documentation.
Check our [getting started](https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/getting_started/) documentation! And have a peruse of our [releases page](https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/releases).

### Supported Platforms
While we try to support a reasonable number of architectures and operating systems, it's not always possible to support a given platform due to library constraints or performance issues.
Platforms that we don't officially support *may* still work, but we can't test or guarantee performance or stability.
This is the current status of support offered by GoToSocial for different platforms (if something is unlisted it means we haven't checked yet so we don't know):
| OS | Architecture | Support level | Binary archive | Docker container |
| ------- | ----------------------- | ---------------------------------- | -------------- | ---------------- |
| Linux | x86-64/AMD64 (64-bit) | 🟢 Full | Yes | Yes |

| Linux | x86-32/i386 (32-bit) | 🟡 Partial<sup>[2](#32-bit)</sup> | Yes | Yes |
| OpenBSD | Any | 🔴 None<sup>[3](#openbsd)</sup> | No | No |
#### FreeBSD
Mostly works, just a few issues with WASM SQLite; check release notes carefully when installing on FreeBSD. If running with Postgres you should have no issues.
#### 32-bit
GtS doesn't work well on 32-bit systems like i386, or Armv6/v7, mainly due to performance of media decoding.
As such, we don't recommend running GtS on 32-bit, but you may have success if you turn off downloading of remote media.
For more guidance, check release notes when trying to install on 32-bit.
#### OpenBSD
Marked as unsupported due to performance issues (high memory usage when idle, crashes while processing media).
You may have some success if you turn off decoding of remote media.
We hope to support OpenBSD better in future, but this is not guaranteed.

# Releases
GoToSocial can be installed in a number of different ways. We publish official binary releases as well as container images. A number of third-party packages are maintained by different distributions and some people have created additional deployment tooling to make it easy to deploy GoToSocial yourself.
GoToSocial can be installed in a number of different ways. We publish official binary releases as well as container images.
## Binary releases
A number of third-party packages are maintained by different distributions, and some people have created additional deployment tooling to make it easy to deploy GoToSocial yourself.
We publish binary builds for Linux to [our GitHub project](https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/releases):
* 32-bit Intel/AMD (i386/x86)
* 64-bit Intel/AMD (amd64/x86_64)
* 32-bit ARM (v6 and v7)
* 64-bit ARM64
For FreeBSD we publish:
* 64-bit Intel/AMD (amd64/x86_64)
## Containers
We also publish container images [on the Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial).
Containers are released for the same Linux platforms as our binary releases, with the exception of 32-bit Intel/AMD.
## Snapshots
We publish snapshot binary builds and Docker images of whatever is currently on main.
We always recommend using a stable release instead, but if you want to live on the edge (at your own risk!) then see the [snapshots](https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial#snapshots) section on our GitHub repo for more information.
## Third-party
Some folks have created distribution packages for GoToSocial or additional tooling to aid in installing GoToSocial.
### Distribution packages
These packages are not maintained by GoToSocial, so please direct questions and issues to the repository maintainers (and donate to them!).
