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.

The last #snac release fixes a problem with the Mastodon API. Now, apps (or webapps like Phanpy) properly work as the "inifite scrolling" has been fixed.
Thanks, @grunfink - this was one thing that kept some of my friends away from self-hosting with snac, and now I can help them to have their own digital home.
in fact it doesn't cause any issue: #snac2 is likely the lightest and best performing #fediverse server out there.

@Sarahp oh please #fediverse can we get a self-hosted #foss #pinterest replacement? I love #readeck it's almost there, but currently does full pages only, not images.
We really need a non-corporate #moodboard application .. I'm not a developer, but could it be that complicated to modify existing projects ?
There is #pinry but there don't seem to be working public instances or mobile apps
Am 6. Mai veranstalten wir gemeinsam mit @wikimediaDE und dem @bmuv den online-Workshop
🥁 🥁 Das #Fediverse und seine sozialen Medien.
Mit @nic, @melaniebartos, @MoniKa, @digitalcourage, @cyber4EDU, und @RoedigerRG wird das dezentrale Netzwerk 🕸️ vorgestellt und ganz praktisch in die Nutzung von #Mastodon, #PeerTube und #Pixelfeld eingeführt.

Old post, but still relevant – maybe even more relevant today than it was in 2023.
A reasonable ActivityPub / ActivityStreams API to schedule something to be posted in the future might be — to HTTP POST something to an account's outbox with the `published` field set to a date-time in the future.

Seems this solves the 499 ngnix issue.
A bit caching if big payloads.
This has been asked for on the (broader) Fediverse for a long time, too.
(Longer than Threads has existed.)
Although, in practice, it is impossible to prevent it. Someone can take a screenshot of your post and comment on it — thus doing an ad hoc DIY quote-post.
I've performed some tests, and it's great. #snac and #haproxy are working great together - now with caching of media and json responses, to scale up, and up, and up...and up!
#Varnish is the best tool for caching, but the setup I've tested doesn't require it and it's still good enough.
I think this will be a blog post, as soon as I'll have enough time.
✨ Curated Onboarding

I already wrote about caching here
Now I extended what I cache a bit.
This was because after enabling Option to proxy media I've seen access to the file paths /x/ and /y/ in addition to the path were snac stores the media that I include in my own posts ( /s/ ).
There are two locations to proxy media, depending if you requests the media via the mastodonapi or via the web. (/x/ and /y/), oh and I added the nodeinfo2 path too, because I've noticed it was queried all the time by a lot of instances and it gives me pleasure to see something cached handed out in the access logs 🙂 (I guess it is actaully irrelevant for the system resources).
This is the updated setup:
Enable the relevant modules:
a2enmod expires cache cache_disk
Be sure "htcacheclean" is running to clean up old disk cache. (under debian see /etc/default/apache-htcacheclean or else the relevant systemd service or whatever)
Then add to the snac Virtualhost config:
<LocationMatch "^/social/[^/]+/[xys]/|^/social/nodeinfo_2_0">This will use the disk cache to cache everything under the /s/, /x/ and /y/ Path, as well as for /$username/nodeinfo20, utilizing the mod_expires to generate the appropriate cache headers (for lazy ones like me), In this case caching it for 1 day.
CacheEnable disk
Header set Cache-Control "max-age=86400, public" "expr=%{REQUEST_STATUS} == 200"
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault "access plus 86400 seconds"
</LocationMatch>
The Header that I set here, on the condition of Status code 200, is needed for the path /y/, because snac defaults to set no-cache
on that location and the modexpires will honor that if we don't override it. I set it to the same Cache-Control value as modexpores woud. (mod_expires will additionally calculate the date and put that in the expires
header. (hence the name I guess 😀 )

We're still $76k away from our stretch goal to establish a non-profit.
We're already working on it, and can't wait to build a sustainable, long term home for our ecosystem of projects!
That being said, if you could help us reach $200k, we can hire more team members.
Please spread the word, we need ethical and safe alternative platforms more than ever!
Where are the links to #Loops -videos here (#Mastodon, other #fediverse)? Saw a linked #kitten video today. Kay... BUT WE NEED MOAR!!!
Just published a guide on setting up Snac on an Ubuntu VM using NGINX Proxy Manager. Snac is an incredibly lightweight #ActivityPub server. A true nom nom among fediverse platforms.
If you're curious about minimal fediverse instances, check it out:
Thanks to all of the people working to make the Fediverse such a nice and diverse place!

"pixelfed is doomed because of the network effect"
"nobody will ever use this"
"he thinks he can take on Instagram"
You have to be crazy to think you can compete with Instagram, even crazier to work on it for 7 years, just waiting for that moment
The moment when people see the value in what you've been building for so long
Never let them win, keep building. If nobody thinks they can compete with IG, nobody will
It only takes one crazy dreamer, and people like you

1 of 3 GitHub Continuous Integration checks has passed (which is a good sign the other two will pass as well).
I'm still avoiding commit access, so it's up to someone else to merge it.
Thanks to you, inz, lxo and anyone else I may have missed for the continued iterated improvements!
