Update: all the FediMeteo instances have been updated to #snac 2.94

I'll add the requested cities ASAP.

#FediMeteo #FediMeteoUpdates

I've just published version 2.94 of #snac, the simple, minimalistic #ActivityPub instance server written in C. It includes the following changes (mostly bug fixes):

The author of a replied post is no longer added to the CC: line, as it does not have much sense.

Fixed mentions for users with hyphens in their identifiers.

Unlisted replies to unknown posts were being skipped from the timeline, so don't do that.

If an actor marked as broken gets a post boosted (proving that is [back] functioning), it's unmarked as such.

Don't try (and fail) to parse non-UTC dates in posts (I'll provide a real fix eventually).

Fixed a redirection loop in the /users alias.

Mastodon API: fixed a bug that made changing the sensitive content string impossible, avatars and headers can be deleted (contributed by bm90).

Updated Czech and Italian translations (contributed by pmjv and fidiben).

Has anyone made a script to import a blocklist into #snac ?

Seems like it would be easy enough to throw some shell together to import a list and iterate /usr/local/bin/snac block $snac-data $url, (though you do get the same exit code for not accessing $snac-data as when you re-import the same $url).

Could also be made into a cronjob to keep things up to date.

"If you want to be in the Fediverse without relying on big intances, or if you just want to own your #data & #identity on the network, running your own instance is the way to go.
That is where Mastodon alternatives such as GoToSocial & #snac comes in.
snac (Social Networks Are Crap) is a minimalistic, lightweight #ActivityPub instance…perfect for single user instances or small communities, and it's so light that even a #RaspberryPi can handle it without breaking a sweat."

It's very satisfying being able to install my own home server with cloud for family and my own fediverse instance @stratos. Thank you @yunohost @nextcloud @grunfink for making it possible!

#snac2 #fediverse @grunfink

There is a person I've been helping for a while who runs two instances, one #GoToSocial and one #snac.

Yesterday, they suffered severe file system corruption on their device, and I lent them a hand with the recovery. For GoToSocial, they restored the DB from the previous backup and got it running again. For snac, although a few files were lost, no action was necessary... it just started back up and did what it had to do, bringing the instance back to full operation.

This goes to show that when software is well-designed and intentionally kept simple, it's also easier to get back up and running when something goes wrong. In this case, snac's "files-only" approach demonstrated excellent resilience.

Thanks, @grunfink !

Wrote a few fuzzing harnesses during my latest vacation to squash some bugs in #snac, a super cool ActivityPub instance.
@grunfink was really nice and quick to fix these bugs; I will contribute more in the future!

Do I know anyone running #snac on #openbsd?

Hi! Is there a way to see the list of muted users and unmute them via the #snac web interface? @grunfink

#neverslop #snac #dollstagram #ai #girlfriend

So far @MonaApp seems to be the ticket on iOS + #snac

Anyone have any other recommendations to try? https://snac.amd.im/amd/p/1781807020.988120

I modified my snac to see how much effort it would be to add a "neighborhood" section. Turns out it wasn't very hard!

How it works:

• You add a list of hosts to the "neighborhood" key of your server.json
• A neighborhood link appears that you can then use to browse
• This link shows a list of all public posts of a selected instance. It's a subset of the "Federated" timeline.

#snac users,

What's your preferred clients for the Unix terminal (must be cross-platform, not Linux-only, for goodness, sake! 😅) and Android?

I've noticed that @tut and @pachli (and other @Tusky forks) don't quite like snac, and tend to act a wee bit cagey. ;)

#snac finally sends me push notifications!

Two things you can see here... It's pretty hot! That's why I stayed home and implemented a missing feature into snac. That's what you can also see - it finally sends push notifications to devices! In this case, we can see notifications coming from #MastoBlaster App for iPhone.

What we can also see, it's still a bit faulty and not the expected content, but a first success here at least ;) I'll make some further adjustments when there's time and get in touch with @grunfink to check if we can get this upstream. Thanks to @stefano for testing with me :)

I've just published version 2.93 of #snac, the simple, minimalistic #ActivityPub instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:

Added a new admirations entry point to the web UI, containing a timeline of liked, boosted and reacted posts. Please take note that, after installing the new version, it will start empty, and be filled with subsequent reactions (contributed by violette).

It's now possible to disable showing posts in a given set of languages.

Nested quoted posts are limited up to 3 levels.

New configuration knob: by setting keep_replies_posts to true in server.json, remote posts that a local user has replied to are retained in the public timeline, preventing them from being purged (contributed by hanchan).

New configuration knob: by setting keep_replied_me to true in server.json, remote replies to local posts are retained in the public timeline, preventing them from being purged (contributed by hanchan).

Ensure actors' public key PEM never includes anything after the end marker.

Fixed some memory leaks (contributed by inz).

Several additional keyId checks (many thanks to lainsoykaf for bringing this to my attention).

Fixed crash in the JSON parser (many thanks to nullenvk for bringing this to my attention).

Mastodon API: fixed lost custom emojis after edition (contributed by e0w0e).

Updated French, Brazilian Portuguese, German, Spanish translations (contributed by dragondaddy, daltux, zen).

Earlier this week I migrated my mastodon.social account to a self hosted snac instance. And I have just upgraded to snac 2.93. Very pleased with the results! #snac

Love #snac

I kept fat-thumbing when trying to open content warning'd/hidden posts on me phone...but I realised I can just edit the style.css to add a bigger margin. I should probably check out some of the proper stylesheets people have made (but there is something very rad about the default theme)

Adding the neighborhood feed to snac has been great as a curated “public” tab. I wonder if I can expose it as a list so it shows up on the clients. It's a shame I can only use it on web.

It's also possible to add your #fediverse or #mastodon to the IndieWeb Ring.
Auth can be done for example with rel="me" github (if it is "available").
In #snac you might add [←](https://xn--sr8hvo.ws/previous)An [IndieWeb Webring](https://xn--sr8hvo.ws) 🕸💍[→](https://xn--sr8hvo.ws/next) to your User Settings...Bio

While watching the #movie Project Hail Mary, I have upgraded we're dreaming to #snac to v2.93. Easy upgrade like usual! Amaze, amaze, amaze!

#Snac users, #help. How do I reply to a post of another user who I am not following? The authorize_interaction seems to allow only Follow, Like and Boost. What am I missing?

Ok, I'm testing something cool.

A blend of #snac, #Mastodon, #honk, #GoToSocial...and more.

This is running on a Raspberry PI Zero W, powered by NetBSD. The same that is powering my own smart thermostat. And it's quick.

I'll use this account and try to "stress" it.
