Somehow my main instance, which is a large Mastodon server operated by professionals, is significantly slower than my little single-user #snac instance running on the Raspi Zero in my shelf.

I may change it to return the correct code eventually, but I don't consider it a priority.

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.

The #BSDCafe #snac instance has been updated to 2.94

#BSDCafeAnnouncements #BSDCafeUpdates

The #illumosCafe #snac instance has been updated to 2.94

#illumosCafeServices #illumosCafeUpdates

I'll add the requested cities ASAP.

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).

@jspath55 @stefano Nice! Perhaps I’ll do something similar with my single core RISC-V email server. A gig of RAM is extreme overkill for an email server.

Curious - what’re the advantages and disadvantages of LittleFedi compared with, say, #snac?

CC: @jorijn@jorijn.com

This #gotosocial instance is running on a vm inside my home network, which subjects it to the whims of my unreliable ISP and my unreliable power company.

But my #snac instance (@amd) is small enough to fit in extra resources on the small VPS I keep my mailserver on.

So I’m debating whether to move this account over to that for some increased reliability (and simultaneously wondering whether I want to keep self hosting these personal services at all…)

Interesting: #Phanpy works wonderfully as a client for #snac.

Except that for some reason, in Notifications view, it shows the “New notifications” overlay when there actually aren’t any new notifications 🤔

The former cluster member, now the only one serving my website, is with that power consumption now an ideal replacement. The wyse 3040 power consumption was around the same. with turbo boost enabled, the n4100 consumes up to 10W in total, and 5-6W in idle.
Running off grid from my solar system battery, every watt counts. So i am really happy to have this machine now at such a low power consumption.
I guess I will migrate the old #snac instance there, the old P II was too loud to let it run 😅

$ ls -l

Storage has grown to 1.7gb, memory and cpu utilization are still negligible.

This is easily the lightest weight fedi host I have run to-date, and I've run just about all of them.

I'm still hestitant to move to it full time, but it is pretty appealing.

@scips@mastodon.social nice! This isn't ready for release, yet, but you can surely try with #snac

It’s not Tuesday yet, but it will be soon.
And I want to thank @grunfink for creating and maintaining snac. Tomorrow I’ll talk about FediMeteo at DevConf, and it would never have come to be if it weren’t for snac and for the help the author gave me in fixing some things to optimize its use.

True Open Source, made with passion, by people who do things for the love of the things themselves.

@82mhz @rl_dane @daj that's why I like solutions like #snac. No nonsense decisions, but a specific idea behind.

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).

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@comam.es to check if we can get this upstream. Thanks to @stefano@bsd.cafe for testing with me :)
