I cannot find any documentation for how to install friendica using sqlite driver instead of mysql. I already know how to do the standard installation with mysql but I want to use sqlite instead.

I need help with installing and running via sqlite backend and tips on how to minimize database storage size. Is there any documentation on this? Has anyone done it?

#Friendica #Sqlite #Fediverse
Currently we don't support this.
@Michael Vogel @OCTADE The simple reason for that is that the queries are to specific for one (MariaDB/MySQL) dialect and not "portable".
@helpers Friendica and Hubzilla are both on new releases as of 12-21. I've found bugs in both.
