      One Small Step into Geminispace

      Around this time last year I decided to dig out a hole for myself. Without much else to offer, I figured my best bet for content would be a phlog built from a copy of my blog posts here on my server, so I threw together a shell script to periodically grab my posts and export them as a Gopher tree. It was crude, but it's been working well.

      When I first announced it, several people asked if I had any plans to make a capsule. I wasn't really considering it at the time since I felt like I was accomplishing all I wanted to do with Gopher, but now I've decided I want to give it a shot. I installed Solderpunk's Molly Brown server (which I chose because it was the only one in Debian's repo) and, after much struggle with cert permissions, got it up and running.

      For content, I went with the same thing as with Gopher: a gemlog powered by a snac-to-Gemini exporter. snac uses Markdown for formatting, which is of course very similar to Gemtext. I went back and edited my earlier blog posts to make them more Gemtext-like, which mostly meant adding header lines. The only real complication was inline links: I would need to strip them out of the Markdown source. Since I'm doing this all with shell scripts (as opposed to something like Python that'd probably work better), an actual Markdown parser wasn't really an option, so I decided to do it with a regex. The thing is, I'm not very good at writing regexes. After many, many fruitless searches trying to find an existing solution I came across a bash script that did what I wanted. The script itself was obvious vibe-coded filth, but it did contain a sed -E command that did exactly what I needed.

      The exporter is a comically-inept hackjob and has a backslash-itis problem (which I imagine is coming from the JSON parser I'm using) but it does, somehow, work. Some day I'll see about redoing the whole thing in Python, but for now it's good enough.

      Take a look if you're interested: gemini://gemini.n8fq.org

                          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 :)

                                                    I'm toying with Snac, using it more and more. It's an amazing peace of technology. It does what it does, and doesn't get in my way. 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.

                                                      @df I love this idea and the software. I'm a great supporter of exactly for the same reason. You don't need beefy hardware to have your own Fediverse home.
                                                      Starling is a nice because it can be used without setting up a proper server - just a php installation and a domain.

                                                      I'll keep this testing instance on and continue to test it with MastoBlaster.
