#snac

Läuft spielend auf einem Raspberry Pi 4, ist schnell eingerichtet und pflegeleicht. Ich kann es sehr empfehlen.

#snac #fediverse #instanz #RaspberryPi #selfhosted #empfehlung

It only lacks auto-complete of handles and tags.

#snac

heck, I think I will *eventually* simply migrate to my snac. BSD cafe is best, self hosting is bestest.

@df I love this idea and the software. I'm a great supporter of #snac 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.

I wish more modern software was like #snac2 (:

Coming next week: a post about the FediMeteo bot, how it works, how it has evolved, and the overall structure of jails. The following week: caching the BSD Cafe Mastodon instances on nginx.

Stay tuned on ITNotes!

Also, I think it's important to remember that #snac 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 #snac.

The usual solution is to use an ActivityPub relay. This, however, resulted in receiving looots of posts, hitting file size and inode limits on this small VM. Thus, I gave up this experiment a while ago.

Now, I just stumbled about https://relay.fedi.buzz/ from @astro@c3d2.social, which allows to only follow certain hashtags, which is kinda exactly what I wanted ❤️

After following the Subscribing to Fediverse Relays section from snac(8), I came up with the following jq(1) command to subscribe each hashtag I am already following on my #snac instance. And yes, this would be way faster to do by hand for those six hashtags in total.

$ # Create multiple snac follow commands for each hashtag the "xz"
$ # user follows. The "data" directory is the $SNAC_BASEDIR.
$ jq -j \
  '.followed_hashtags.[] | "snac follow data relay https://relay.fedi.buzz/tag/",.[1:],"; "' \
  < data/user/xz/user.json
snac follow data relay https://relay.fedi.buzz/tag/openbsd; snac follow data relay https://relay.fedi.buzz/tag/snac; [ . . . ]

Finally, I am able to doomscroll #biketooter for weird and ridiculously expensive bikes from my instance; yay!

@Black_Flag @khleedril @veronica

We popularize #snac and #gotosocial for the individual, easy to deploy, diy freedom.
Friends not techies? Help 'em out and lend them an account. We need eachother more than ever these days.

But, you can have snac running from a subdirectory of your main domain (which, as far as I know, no other fediverse implementation does). I.e. you can have your snac root in example.com/social and then you can identify as you@example.com . So you have no unnecessary subdomain just to be you.

Which is what I do for this very domain.

#snac doesn't support split domains ;-(

I was *so* close.
