                I've just published version 2.93 of , the simple, minimalistic 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).

                        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 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 :)

Faster than mastodon, better looking (I have a custom theme!) than mastodon, and running in my infrastructure. It checks all the boxes.

                                        It only lacks auto-complete of handles and tags.

                                            MastoBlaster Build 94 is now available on TestFlight.

                                            This is a major release that merges several different development branches I've been working on, bringing together a lot of moving parts into a single build. A long, sleepless night…

                                            Here is what changed:

                                            • Full Drafts Support: A complete end-to-end draft flow. It includes auto-save, the ability to edit existing drafts, and a smart cancel confirmation that either discards a new draft or restores the original state if you were editing. It supports replies, quotes, polls, and media metadata.
                                            • Trending Posts: Added a new trending timeline type with proper offset pagination support.
                                            • Timeline Position Improvements: Added extra protection to stop SwiftUI from overwriting your saved scroll position when the view disappears or goes to the background. If a saved post can't be found in the cache, the app will now try a direct status fetch before giving up.
                                            • UI & Navigation Fixes: Tapping Content Warnings (CW), "Show Filtered Post", or "Show More" now goes through an inline-action guard, fixing the bug where tapping them would accidentally trigger row navigation into the thread. Filtered posts also get proper bottom padding so the list separator doesn't sit on top of the button.
                                            • Instance Compatibility & Tweaks: Added customizable timeout settings for slower instances (like snac on older hardware). I also fixed the 405 error when setting alt text on GoToSocial, and updated marker sync to strictly align with Mastodon’s documented form shape.
                                            • Testing focus: I've implemented search fixes ensuring queries stay locked to the account you are searching from. If you are on GoToSocial, please test this thoroughly and let me know how it behaves. Since this build is the result of a massive merge, keep an eye out for any regressions.

                                                Also, I think it's important to remember that also allows following hashtags by those RSS feeds provided by several Fediverse implementations (like Mastodon), avoiding the need of subscribing to a relay. E.g., you can add https://mastodon.social/tags/snac to the followed hashtags field, and it will periodically poll that RSS from the big instance and add to your timeline those posts tagged with .
