Also thanks to: martijndeb, xvello, zen, daltux and anyone else I may have missed!
I submitted a Pull Request to update MacPorts' snac to 2.82 here:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/29259
The GitHub Continuous Integration checks are still running.
Assuming they complete OK, it's still up to someone else with commit access to merge it.

/api/v1/instance/peers Mastodon API endpoint in version 2.75. It returns the list of nodes a given #snac instance knows, unless the disable_inbox_collection knob is set to true (in this case, an empty array is returned).![[?]](https://snac.daltux.net/daltux/s/d998ffd7c33b03cbf829fc04b0bbfc4b.jpg)

Working on free software is sometimes great because you find people that really care. Men and women that care for others, that weave social fabric, that altruistically share their time in benefits of others.
Stefano (like many others) gives his time as a gift for others to enjoy. He helped me make #snac what it is now.
If you had given up when my software was in its infancy, I would probably gave up and left it unfinished.
So, I dedicate my #ThankyouTuesday back to you, Stefano.

Fortunately, @voron 's site on snac themes still has this screenshot, which I'm happy to share.
This response from the author of snac motivated me to continue, study, and appreciate this fantastic software for the Fediverse.
Snac is an example of true internet democracy: it runs everywhere and allows anyone to have their own autonomous, personal space in the Fediverse.
"Don't despair or quit", says an author who cares. And the Fediverse cares about them.
For today's #ThankYouTuesday, I want to thank grunfink - @grunfink - for the excellent work they do, quietly and with passion. I suggest that if you think snac is a good idea and you have the means, you offer them at least a coffee.

A screenshot of a social media thread. The first post is by "Stefano BSD Cafe" and describes a problem where threads hang when boosting, liking, and posting messages in a short amount of time. The reply is from "The Real Grunfink", who says they have a vague idea of the issue and will push a fix soon.
Update of the poll object), or b) when the end time expires, where snac queries the object back to get the final results.![[?]](https://gone.lema.org/fileserver/01AGG3YT2F4M3S9YGAKRQAP768/attachment/original/01K2QJ616KA8K531FV56FRH7A3.png)
👾Fixed my fedi_slurp scripts & documentation to work with #GotoSocial in addition to #snac (in theory it should work with plain old mastodon but I never tested)

This goes through your fediverse bookmarks and adds them to your readeck instance or youtube watch list automatically. New release handles having several fediverse accounts (but only saved to one readeck instance / youtube watchlist).
My friends, I'm so excited and happy to introduce a new project: the illumos Cafe!
The positive and constructive spirit of the BSD Cafe, created and maintained by all the friends who participated from day one in building a strong and friendly community, deserves to spread to other operating systems. Because there are other OSes that deserve attention, certainly more than they're getting right now.
Operating systems based on illumos (like SmartOS, OmniOS, Tribblix, OpenIndiana, etc.) are mature, stable, secure, and perfectly usable for a wide range of tasks. ZFS is native, zones are an excellent method for containerization, and bhyve and kvm coexist beautifully - and so much more, too much to list in a single post.
So from today, the illumos Cafe will stand alongside the BSD Cafe in creating a positive, respectful, and growth-oriented (but also relaxing!) environment, starting right here in the Fediverse with a Mastodon instance and a snac one.
I've written an introductory article about the project, including some technical details. I invite everyone interested to read it: https://it-notes.dragas.net/2025/08/18/introducing-the-illumos-cafe/
Choose your table, take a seat and enjoy your time at the illumos Cafe!

, #snac 's default icon, before.When I started developing snac, I realized I needed a default icon to show for those accounts that lacked an avatar, similar to the outlined elephant Mastodon has. Given the minimalistic nature of the software, I thought that having a heavily-pixelated one, even 8-bit-like, was a perfect match.
So, I started designing one, inspired by singer/composer Siouxsie Sioux, whom I'm a big fan of. I've done some pixelart before, but was not totally satisfied, so I asked a friend with more artistic skills, who did some tweaks, and I was finally happy with it.
Also, it's said that all cool software must have some easter eggs; so, Susie looks somewhat different sometimes, and once a year, in a special day, she looks very different. Easter eggs are like jokes and if you explain them they lose their power, so I'm leaving it here.

You don't know Snac? But you should: https://codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2
A simple, minimalistic and well documented #ActivityPub instance server written in C, no database needed, totally JavaScript-free, no cookies either, not much bullshit.
I submitted a Pull Request to update MacPorts' snac to 2.81 here:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/29032
GitHub Actions' Continuous Integration checks has passed OK, which hopefully is a good sign?
It's up to someone else with commit access to merge it.
(As a total aside, given the comam.es .es TLD; I'm guessin you're in Spain? I have tentative plans to attend the MIRA Festival [mostly to see Amnesia Scanner] in November. Albeit, that's in Barcelona and I vaguely understand there are linguistic, cultural and socio-political differences? I've never visited before; but thought I would mention it as a possibility to meet up AFK maybe!)

By the way, my #snac instance now runs on 
#DockerSwarm along with 
#Traefik, the reverse proxy which I've used since the start of this server. If you think it could be helpful, I’d be happy to submit a pull request with an example file like examples/docker-swarm_stack_traefik.yml.
I’ve also pushed the 
container image I built to Codeberg. Additionally, I could share a 
script that automates this setup.
If the propagate_local_purge configuration variable is set to true in server.json, purged local posts generate a Delete activity that is sent everywhere, instead of only deleted from the filesystem.
Included a small tweak to avoid being confused by implementations that return valid webfinger queries for non-account URLs (like i.e. the Wordpress ActivityPub plugin in some configurations). This helps in searching by URL.
Added Ukrainian translation (contributed by wincentbalin).
New command-line option muted, to list all MUTEd actors.
Mastodon API: Fixed metadata and follower approval flag when editing the account.

@grunfink@comam.es
Or.. If possible, to ignore that option and error on it, so that people neither post unwanted public or private messages?
I don't know the technical side of it, if that can work elegantly...
Yes, snac has only the concept of private message ( to mentioned only) or globally readable. Nothing fancy else.
Interesting, I never noticed #snac completely renders federated WordPress posts.
Another small marvel from truly excellent software.
If you want to change the domain, you must move all your accounts from the old server to the new one, while both instances are operative.
https://comam.es/snac-doc/snac.8.html#Migrating_from_snac_to_Mastodon
and this
https://comam.es/snac-doc/snac.8.html#Migrating_from_Mastodon_to_snac
If you want to move from one #snac to another, it's mostly the same.
MUTE: silences an author forever. You'll never read anything from this poster anymore. Like block in Mastodon and other implementations, but without sending a Block activity.
Hide: hides a post and everything hyerarchically below (i.e. the full tree). The conversation won't be shown to you forever, and any incoming post in any of the levels will be dropped. No other part is informed about it, it's just a local operation.
Delete: deletes a post from your timeline. If it's part of a conversation, the branches below are left dangling, but are still shown in you timeline. Also, if you are the author of the post, a Delete activity is sent to everyone involved, so your post (hopefully) disappears everywhere.
Yeah. I can't see the difference between mute and delete for a post not written by me. It's gone either way isn't it?
The only difference is informing other parties about the delete if it was written by me, or am I overlooking something?
Edit: I asking because I'm thinking maybe one of the buttons could go away to make room, or change its behavior. Like "hide" could be instead "mute" to only not inform anymore on the conversation, but don't delete it (like mastodon does)
#snac #snac2
Does someone know the difference in "hide" and "delete" under a post?
What does this technically do, and how does it affect what I or others see from this post?
Is there a different behavior if it's my own post or something in my timeline?
It seems both options delete the post from my view. I only don't know whats the difference beside that.

Note object that I know of. If a post does not include the magic "for everyone" target address, an implementation should assume it's private and mark it as such. #snac shows this kind of messages with a small lock emoji next to the poster's name in the same timeline as public messages.CC: @pernia@schizophreniabunker.vip @mint@ryona.agency @sysrq@lab.nyanide.com
Mastodon API: fixed a regression (introduced in previous version in the "boosts disappear in Tusky" fix) that interrupted timelines.

A simple, minimalistic and well documented #ActivityPub instance server written in C, no database needed, totally JavaScript-free, no cookies either, not much bullshit.
Added a server-wide Webmention hook; this way, if somebody out there (that supports Webmention) links to a user or post in this instance, a notification is sent (this is the complementary of what was implemented in version 2.76).
Fixed regression while sending email via pipe on OpenBSD.
Fixed Markdown parsing when the URL has parenthesis.
Always show the 'pending follow confirmations' section if there are any (even if the toggle is off).
If a metadata value is an account handler, it's also tried to be validated (rel="me" links).
Another search by URL tweak (this time for Pixelfed links).
Mastodon API: fixed a bug that made some boosts disappear after being shown in apps like Tusky, added followed hashtags maintenance, other minor changes.
Renamed command-line actions create_list to list_create and delete_list to list_remove.
The default favicon URL can be changed from the server configuration.
New command-line option export_posts, to export all posts by a user in a JSON format compatible with the one generated by Mastodon.
The command-line options to send notes also allow an optional -r argument, to set the URL of a Fediverse post this note is a reply to.

server.json named favicon_url, that will allow to set the default favicon. For now, you can configure your HTTP frontend to serve $YOUR_HOST/favicon.ico to whatever icon you want.
