I just gave a quick look at both the initial Mastodon implementation and Pleroma and will likely go with the later:
- The initial mastodon implementation has a lot of moving parts (Postgres, Redis, ElasticSearch, ...): https://docs.joinmastodon.org/administration/configuration/
- => Pleroma only requires the erlang runtime + Postgres. - Pleroma is written in Elixir, a 'compiled' (bytecode) language with support for releases (OTP releases). I am familiar with the environment and its deployment process, which I find less painful than a ruby-on-rails one.
- Pleroma seems to support a feature set reasonably similar to the original one.
We will have to handle maintainance/watch for security update ourselve since no-one packaged these things due to the large dependency trees.

I played a bit with Pleroma a few days/weeks ago: IPv6 support is totally broken. Erlang/elixir often separate calls/options for ''inet'' and ''inet6'', which means someone has to think about IPv6 support at some point: it never happened on Pleroma.
- No LDAP support over IPv6 (blocker, but easy fix).
- No federation support for v6-only, goes down dependencies' dependencies: (can be worked around with a dual-stack VM, somewhat painful).
Since we want things to move on I'll likely setup a mastodon/ruby deployment in the coming days.
