Run your own decentralized social platform on shared hosting or a tiny VPS WITHOUT Redis, PostgreSQL, or complex infrastructure.

What it makes so special to me? It looks awesome, comes with a great admin web interface and does not require a VPS instance where it can also be operated on a cheap shared hosting systems. By the given requirements, it also easily runs on a #RaspberryPI and all kind of systems, including #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #Illumos and more!

This all makes it perfect to everyone and even beginners to run their own instance. With relay support (e.g., fedi-relay.gyptazy.com) it even can consume and post content over non-directly connected instances in the #fediworld!

I still wouldn't associate myself to furries though. Partly because of the questionable reputation of some, and that I think most of them wouldn't associate back to someone who eats fries without salt or ketchup, like me.

Most furries I see are full of personalities. I'm literally the basic of the basic, like a fresh arch/gentoo/lfs install, lol. I work and I'm functional but... boring.

The author went the extra mile and had some kind words to write about OpenBSD's OpenRsync as well:

https://michael.stapelberg.ch/posts/2026-05-24-minimal-memory-safe-go-rsync-vulns/#openrsync

Ironically, I saw this not long after closing a Pull Request to submit an OpenRync port to MacPorts: https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/28096

Not that I don't still have an interest in such things, but it seems as if there are some other things going on (if I observed things correctly, it seems as if Apple maybe commissioned Klara Systems to port OpenRsync to macOS [e.g. https://github.com/KlaraSystems/openrsync]? Yet, it didn't seem as if they did so in a very collaborative spirit with the lead developer Kristaps Dzonsons?). Moreover, I didn't want to just leave that dangling when other MacPorts contributors were side-eyeing the PR as being left open for so long.

Colorado exempted open-source operating systems from 2028 OS-level age-verification rules, shielding Linux installs from mandatory checks. 🔓
