    Adding the neighborhood feed to snac has been great as a curated “public” tab. I wonder if I can expose it as a list so it shows up on the clients. It's a shame I can only use it on web.

      Thank you!

      I submitted a Pull Request to update MacPorts' snac to 2.93 here:

      https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/33311

      GitHub Continuous Integration checks passed OK!

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

      Thanks to violette, hanchan, inz, lainsoykaf, nullenvk, e0w0e, dragondaddy, daltux, zen and anyone else I may have missed for also contributing to the improvements in this release!

        Huh. I've never seen that before. In the #snac web interface, it shows up as a #WebMention.

                      I've just published version 2.93 of , the simple, minimalistic instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:

                      Added a new admirations entry point to the web UI, containing a timeline of liked, boosted and reacted posts. Please take note that, after installing the new version, it will start empty, and be filled with subsequent reactions (contributed by violette).

                      It's now possible to disable showing posts in a given set of languages.

                      Nested quoted posts are limited up to 3 levels.

                      New configuration knob: by setting keep_replies_posts to true in server.json, remote posts that a local user has replied to are retained in the public timeline, preventing them from being purged (contributed by hanchan).

                      New configuration knob: by setting keep_replied_me to true in server.json, remote replies to local posts are retained in the public timeline, preventing them from being purged (contributed by hanchan).

                      Ensure actors' public key PEM never includes anything after the end marker.

                      Fixed some memory leaks (contributed by inz).

                      Several additional keyId checks (many thanks to lainsoykaf for bringing this to my attention).

                      Fixed crash in the JSON parser (many thanks to nullenvk for bringing this to my attention).

                      Mastodon API: fixed lost custom emojis after edition (contributed by e0w0e).

                      Updated French, Brazilian Portuguese, German, Spanish translations (contributed by dragondaddy, daltux, zen).

                            Two things you can see here... It's pretty hot! That's why I stayed home and implemented a missing feature into snac. That's what you can also see - it finally sends push notifications to devices! In this case, we can see notifications coming from App for iPhone.

                            What we can also see, it's still a bit faulty and not the expected content, but a first success here at least ;) I'll make some further adjustments when there's time and get in touch with @grunfink@comam.es to check if we can get this upstream. Thanks to @stefano@bsd.cafe for testing with me :)

                                    I'm glad to announce the release of version 2.78 of , the simple, minimalistic instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:

                                    Hashtag following also allow URLs to RSS feeds of ActivityPub objects (like e.g. https://mastodon.social/tags/ThankYouTuesday).

                                    Users can now configure a webhook to receive an HTTP POST for every notification. This can be useful for implementing bots that react to activities, like autorepliers, chatbots or interactive textual games (see snac(1) for more information).

                                    The number of pending follow confirmations is shown next to the "people" link.

                                    Faster performance metrics (contributed by dandelions).

                                    Improved lowercasing in hashtags (contributed by postscriptum).

                                    A search-by-url tweak for implementations that return 200 for invalid webfinger queries (e.g. piefed).

                                    Mastodon API: added follow confirmation endpoints, fixed collisions in attachment file names.

                                    Fixed potential crashes in attachment uploads.

                                      New command-line option unmute to, well, no-longer-mute an actor.

                                      The private timeline now includes an approximate mark between new posts and "already seen" ones.

                                      Fixed a spurious 404 error in the instance root URL for some configurations.
