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.

#Fediverse

#ThisIsTheWay

Yes, I use my relay account to follow multible Hashtags from
https://relay.fedi.buzz/
And it follows
https://fedi-relay.gyptazy.com

Then it follows some https://a.gup.pe/ groups. But I don't know if that one works for me to see it at my real account.

But the fedi.buzz hashtags work very good and the gytazy relay generates a lot of content for me to follow with Hashtags too. Feels like on a big instance.

#Snac

Regarding the enum numbers: they are surely arbitrary, but the rationale there is that they are all ASCII control codes (so: less than 32) that should never happen in a JSON file (and, if they occasionally appear, they are converted to their Unicode representations). The correspondence is:

XS_TYPE_STRING 0x02 ASCII: STX (start of text)
XS_TYPE_TRUE 0x06 ASCII: ACK (acknowledge)
XS_TYPE_FALSE 0x15 ASCII: NAK (negative ack.)
XS_TYPE_LIST 0x1d ASCII: GS  (group separator)
XS_TYPE_LITEM 0x1f US  (unit separator)
XS_TYPE_DICT 0x1c ASCII: FS  (file separator)

Hopefully Phanpy works better now for folks on #snac . Took me some time to investigate this issue https://codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2/issues/164#issuecomment-4415162 , found that `Access-Control-Expose-Headers: Link` header is needed for `Link` header to be read by the browser's `fetch`, used by Masto.js to paginate requests 🙇‍♂️

I submitted a Pull Request to update MacPorts' snac to 2.76 here:

https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/28373

GitHub Actions Continuous Integration checks passed!

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

Thanks to you and dandelions and shtrophic (and anyone else I may have missed) for the continued contributions and improvements!

Turns out I was using my own script ( https://n4no.org/tools ) but that was on my now dead Mastodon instance. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Also #snac does not support access tokens apparently which makes it much more difficult to just script posts from a remote machine (previously jsut one curl request with vanilla Mastodon). It’s easy to post from the snac server itself as it has commands to post but not via a remote request.

Added Webmention support for links (Markdown-style or direct) written in a post.

Added new command-line options for list maintenance.

Display custom emoji in more places (contributed by dandelions).

Mastodon API: fixed infinite scroll in many clients (thanks to cheeaun for giving me the clue), added /api/v1/accounts/.../lists endpoint (contributed by dandelions).

Email notifications can now be sent via libcurl SMTP instead of spawning the /usr/sbin/sendmail program. To use this new feature, some additional server configuration is needed, see snac(8) (contributed by shtrophic).

Perfect companion for #snac by @grunfink@comam.es

I don't know how many web sites out there implement Webmention (I guess very few), but given that it has been very simple to implement, here it is.

Long live the non-big-tech Internet.

#Webmention #IndieWeb

As Stefano says, "you can't describe passion", but you can feel it from his words.

Big thanks to Stefano Marinelli (@stefano@bsd.cafe),
our dedicated admin keeping BSD.cafe running smoothly.
Stefano is always such a positive presence, and his work
is the foundation of our feedverse home.

And a huge shoutout to The Real Grunfink (@grunfink@comam.es),
creator of the excellent #snac #ActivityPub server.
Snac truly embodies the KISS and minimalist principles – simple,
efficient, and powerful software that makes the Fediverse better.

These two contribute significantly to our online space.
If you value their efforts and the spirit of their work,
consider supporting them financially.
Every bit helps keep these vital parts of the decentralized web thriving.

Thank you, Stefano and Grunfink!

I'll fix it, thanks for reporting.

Is there any specific API endpoint that Mona uses that needs to be implemented for this to go away ? I now use #snac by @grunfink@comam.es as my instance server.

Alt...

Snac settings for my user shows follow requests must be approved

I've heard that an app called Mona works acceptably, but I have no idea. I also heard that an iOs app named tooot works; this one also has an Android version, I did some shallow tests with it and it seems to work.

Personally, on my mobile phone, I use #snac's web UI from Android Firefox, and it works perfectly (in fact, for me, if something has an acceptable WWW suport, I install no mobile app, but I'm somewhat of an unfrozen caveman).

No visible disk i/o. Network i/o is handled well with increased timeout. If I don’t use my mobile app cpu cools down. But every load from app causes high load for many minutes, even after load ended.

Maybe I should test this locally instead of cheap OVH VPS ?

Not so in other platforms:

Follows at 1209 of 1373
Followers at 794 of (maybe 1k?) .

I know it takes times and I will just wait & I suppose just retry the import.

Old mastodon page shows old account still has 268 followers that have yet to migrate. Might just be dead accounts.

Alt...

Screenshot of old account at Masto.lema.org showing stats of post media storage qnd follows

What was more laborious was importing all the emojis. I had to resort to macros to build the emoji.json and a bunch of curl calls to get every image to destination server into the static folder of the admin user (me).

Thanks again @grunfink@comam.es for #snac

Have a nice #snac experience!

Added support for scheduled posts (for this to work correctly, users will have to set their time zone, see below).

The user can now select a working time zone. This will be used to correctly parse the local date and time of a scheduled post.

Fixed incorrect poll vote format, which was causing problems in platforms like GotoSocial.

Mastodon API: added support for /api/v1/instance/peers.

Added a new snac-admin helper script (contributed by shtrophic).

In the web UI, posts are separated by the <hr hidden> tag; it's invisible in graphical browsers, but it separates post clearly in text-based browsers.

Some Finnish, Spanish, Czech and Russian translation updates and fixes.

#snacAnnounces

This release has been inspired by the song Pictures on the Wall by #MichelleGurevich.

After reading the questions you ask, I don't think #snac will meet your needs. One by one:

• If A blocks B, B will still see A's posts, unless A's account is private.
• Reporting is not possible (yet).
• There is no way to create a local-only post.
• There is a local instance timeline.
• There is no federated timeline.
• There are no moderation tools. The admin can delete a rogue user, that's all.
• There is no character limit for posts; you can paste Tolstoi's War and Piece in a post, if you like (not that I encourage that).
• Full instances can be blocked (from the command-line, as it's an admin option).

So, I'm sorry.

So, please everyone, don't use #snac on an sshfs mount.

You can also increase the logging level to 2, it may tell something more.

Thanks to you (and gnemmi, pmjv, daltux, inz, Popolon, sn4il, mistivia, zen, Menel, uhuru, anzu, violette, and rozenglass; hopefully I didn't miss anyone?) for the continued improvements!

As with previous PRs I have submitted, I am abstaining from commit access until I have less chaos in my life to be able to take on more responsibilities, so it's up to someone else to merge it.

#snacAnnounces

You're welcome!

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.

#snac2 #Fediverse #IT #SysAdmin

I have it in my name field in #mastodon at nerdculture.de so it can definitely work in mastodon.if it is added at all. https://nerdculture.de/@menel

But it doesn't work with my current main profile with #snac but I love that I can add custom emojis there at all.

You, people, are GREAT. Thank you very much.
