Disclaimer: I’ve only been looking into this for a few days, so I may say something incorrect.
My understanding is that there is a single Mastodon implementation, but there are a number of similar projects which can interoperate by sharing data via ActivityPub to become federated. Some of these other projects implement all/most/some of the Mastodon REST API so that GUI clients (phone apps, etc) can be used for reading and posting. There was an article on LWN recently which listed several of these with some commentary [1].
It’s incredibly difficult to form conventional ceramics into “the correct shape to begin with” with even millimeter tolerances because it shrinks twice during production. First when the liquid from the slurry/clay evaporates, and again when the particles sinter together during firing in the kiln. Both of these are non-linear and can cause warping with complex geometries.
EDIT: binders also typically burn off during firing, which further complicates changing shape during firing.
I think this article was mostly a summary of the engineer’s personal blog post: http://amosdudley.com/weblog/SLO-Camera - linked from the post with example photos in another comment.
Usually these directories are owned by another group (www or www-data) so that your web server program (nginx, apache, etc) can access them without running as root. If you add your user to that group, you should be able to manage files in your web root without sudo. Be careful with permissions, though - you may need to chown to set the group after copying so that the files are readable by your web server.

That's an interesting idea - I will try that. This bit me recently when I used Migration Assistant to move from a Mac with Catalina to one with Big Sur; my login shell was still set to the path for fish installed via Homebrew, but none of those packages were copied over. I managed to hack around it by copying bash into that location so that I could reinstall Homebrew and fish to finish repairing things.
