@mattesilver #snac is pretty tiny but I have not used it myself.

I wish I had #fediverse (#mastodon #pleroma #akkoma #friendica #hubzilla #iceshrimp #snac #lemmy #mbin #kbin #piefed ) #client , I mean like #ELK #lmst #pl-fe #phanpy #tooty #sengi #pinafore #halcyon . That would allow me to sort my subscription feed & browse sorted feed, to see ONLY relevant posts (on topic updates follow-up's?).
Well, the mastodon feature of "LISTS" tries something similiar by allowing to make a sorted list of people\subscription, sorted by your custom category/topic. But it doesn't include #tags. Each #tag must be browsed separately, individually, manually, and there is no feature of list of tags in mastodon.
Lemmy, mbin, kbin, piefed and other #reddit #forum like #activitypub implementations allow you to have topics-threads, but each thread does not replicate very well across multiple servers/instances. Can't be easely crossposted ( by pinging multiple category-bots). And doesn't replicate & easily-searchable as classic mastodon #tags.

Other things I don't like:
- twitter like reposts. they make you feel you subscribed not to the original "reposter" friend, but to "reposted content" that you never subscribed for. the #f2f p2p architecture of #scuttlebot (#scuttlebutt) kinda eliminates that, they don't have nor show reposts. you see there only original posts, original content, of friends you follow. Kinda helps to slow down the mind from informational overflow. You can opt out to see posts of friend's friends, if you want more. Tags are also supported there.
- threads consist only of information aggretator url sharing in reddit like clones. Without having OP OC like in bbs|AgoraRoad , they just silo you to clickbait to other web sites.

I also noticed that all the admin tabs at the top of the snac admin page are all open taking up screen real estate.
I'm not complaining merely poiting out some of my findings and there is probably good reason that I don't know about why these work they way they do.

Well, ok. It looks like a phone app, has no title bar, and the scrollbars are typical horrible phone-style scrollbars, but it works.

#Tokodon just gave me a server error trying to authenticate to snac. :/

This is not the manual; man pages snac(1) (user manual), snac(5) (formats) and snac(8) (administrator manual) are what you are looking for.

THIS
IS
THE
WAY
!!!

#snac itself is remarkably chill and old-fashioned. :D

I had no idea that #snac has stopped working with Lemmy and NodeBB groups. I'll take a look at it.

The issue below was caused because this idiot aka me forgot to rebuild snac under FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE so the compatibility package is not required.

WOW ! The only jail I had a problem with was my #snac jail. It refused to run up quoting this error ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libcrypto.so.30" not found, required by "snac"
I found a fix which is you have to install compat14x-amd compatibility files so stuff that relies on older libs can still run.
#FreeBSD

#Pixelfed, #Pleroma, #Snac and all the others .. can I please have a "local users only" visibility mode for posts? For server announcements and such?

Or does that already exist, and I'm just blind or st00pid or both?

@smallcircles @nathan @davidrevoy @dansup @index @Affekt @ploum

I think it makes sense for Pixelfed to only display images, but I do think it should be a (per-account-followed) setting and also mentioned in the onboarding that the user is only getting photo posts, rather than the entire "picture" of the fediverse, if you'll forgive the awkward diction/pun.

As someone who uses #Pixelfed, #Mastodon, #GoToSocial, and #snac, I appreciate the slightly different takes on the fediverse that these different applications provide.

Quoted posts are now shown.

Added metadata to remote users in the people page (contributed by dandelions).

Fixed memory leak (contributed by dandelions).

Fixed user matching (contributed by rakoo).

Rendering visibility conditionally, with lesser reach if needed (contributed by byte).

Added a button next to a follow notification to follow back.

Fixed typo in man page (contributed by spky).

Updated Czech and German translations (contributed by pmjv and zen).

Also how would Snac perform in a vmm virtual machine using only 1 CPU compared to being in a multi core CPU jail on FreeBSD ??

I've got this idea to spin up OpenBSD on an i5-10505 based PC with 32Gb ram and I want to run the following services which are currently hosted on my FreeBSD server here using Bastille jails for each service.

I have a reverse proxy, nginx for web, git and cgit in another, Syncthing, Radicale. So 5 jails in total. The questions I have are would you try run all of those on base OpenBSD or use vmm for each like I do with bastille ?

The FreeBSD server has a i7-4790 (8) @ 3.60 GHz with 16Gb ram
The OpenBSD machine has a i5-10505 (6) @ 3.2 - 4.6 GHz with 32Gb ram.

Don't ask me why I'm considering this please. #RunBSD

@passthejoe

Another super minimalistic one to check out if #snac doesn't work out for you is the wonderfully-named #honk ;)

It's from the (in)famous #OpenBSD dev, #tedu. ;)

@passthejoe

There's always #GoToSocial and #snac ;)

@Edent take a look at other software. #GoToSocial, #Ktistec, #Snac. There are options that are much easier to deploy and much less resource intensive.

@forquare #snac is much less faff!

You make it possible. Thank you so much.

I’m afraid that my head has decided that at one point, when the madness subsides a bit, I’m going to install #snac on a VPS.
