microhive.social is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.

This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.

@joel@tumfatig.net @passthejoe@ruby.social @rl_dane@polymaths.social there was (perhaps still is, but it's slightly modified now) a situation where if someone you followed replied to a comment by somebody you don't follow, you would not see that reply in your home, local or federated timelines (though it is shown in the followed person's profile).
I get it, and I totally see why that design decision was made, but it wasn't what I was used to coming from Pleroma. Not sure if the same behavior exists in mastodon.

Anyway, doesn't have any of those types of timeline masking things, so it's much nicer in that respect 🙂

          Did anyone ever deploy fedifetcher with snac?
          I'm not asking about mastodon but (https://codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2)
          It seems even consecutive runs take over one hour, I've got duplicates of reply trees in my conversations, while still not seeing all replies there are. Also the "database" increased considerable in size.

          I guess it's not fully compatible. But I would like to know what others did with it.

                              Ich muss irgendwann im Januar meine Instanz umziehen, leider schließt mein jetziger Provider K&T. Dort wurde damals alles tiptop vorinstalliert, ich musste nur noch Updates machen. Sehr schade also.

                              Richtig toll wäre es, wenn auf einem laufen könnte, aber zwei (schlampig-schnelle) Tests von mir haben nicht funktioniert, als "copy/paste-Admin" komm ich da leider an meine Grenzen.

                              I have to move my instance sometime in January, unfortunately my current provider K&T is closing down. Everything was pre-installed perfectly there, I just had to do updates. So it's a real shame.

                              It would be great if could run on , but two (quick and dirty) tests I did didn't work, and as a "copy/paste admin" I'm unfortunately at my limits.

                                  1 out of 3 of GitHub's Continuous Integration checks passed, which is a good sign the other two will pass as well.

                                  It's up to someone else with commit access to merge it.

                                              • snac does not cache remote media at all while GTS defaults to 7 days, but you can tune it down to save disk space
                                              • snac uses the filesystem as the database, which means a lot of small files and symbolic links. If you want to be disk-efficient, you want to store the snac folder on a filesystem with a small block size. Compression might help since it's json.

                                                                    Essa é uma funcionalidade que poderia ser até mais destacada, pois já tentei fazer o mesmo em outro servidor que também suporta Markdown (Akkoma/Mangane), sem sucesso.

                                                                    SNAC é um servidor ActivityPub extremamente minimalista e, por isso, bem peculiar, porém apresenta algumas funções únicas, como essa. Ele não é ideal para quem quer utilizá-lo majoritariamente com aplicativos clientes feitos para a API , pois seu funcionamento é bem distinto daquele mais comum e não tem o compromisso de apresentar as mesmas soluções para as mesmas funcionalidades. Mesmo assim, há casos em que se adequa muito bem. Se não faz questão de ficar o tempo todo interagindo com a Federação ActivityPub ou, por exemplo, se pretende criar um perfil para publicação automatizada por algum :shell: na máquina em que ele está rodando, isso fica muito fácil, pois já possui tudo que precisa no comando, além de ser pouco exigente em requisitos de memória e processamento. Pode ser compilado em praticamente qualquer plataforma POSIX e seus arquivos ficam numa árvore única de diretórios, tornando a transferência para outra máquina relativamente bem simples. Sua interface na Web é simples para quem utiliza e também para quem lê, ao sequer exigir a execução de JavaScript. Apenas HTML e CSS.

                                                                    Como analista de tecnologia da informação, especulando sobre o ciclo de vida dos sistemas, considero provável que, por ter mínimas dependências, SNAC demore bem mais que outros servidores mais complexos para se inviabilizar ou precisar sofrer reescritas drásticas, desde que se forme uma comunidade maior que o mantenha ativo se porventura faltar seu criador.

                                                                      [?]Justine Smithies » 🌐

                                                                                              Assuming they complete OK, it's still up to someone else with commit access to merge it.
