jrollans.com 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.
@vinishor maybe you want to use https://fedi-relay.gyptazy.com to extend your visibility to other tech related instances :)
Already an idea about the fedi solution? Can recommend #snac2 which is simple and lightweight in our ideas of lightweight solution from BSD aspects.
Pero es que es verdad!. #Mastodon andará muy lindo desde tal o cual aplicación en Android o iOS .. pero en cuanto abrís un perfil en el navegador del móvil: se arrastra!.
Es increíble la cantidad de porquería que tiene que cargar el navegador para poder acceder al contenido en ActivityPub mientras que #snac logra lo mismo con un uso mínimo de recursos! Sin cookies, sin JavaScript, sin estupideces .. solo una implementación sensata y buen código!
Gracias @grunfink@comam.es 🤗
well, strictly speaking, a FTP access to the web server could be enough: just mount the folder with sshfs and run snac over it, as I did when I installed my own instance on a cheap shared hosting.
Obviously, if you have shell access to the server it's much simpler.
I have a question though: how you delete a user from #snac2? I mean, I read how to add users in the Administration manual, but I can't find how to delete a user (and if it can be done while running the server).
Is removing the user folder all you need to do? What about the account they were following? I guess they are not going to be unsubscribed that way...
The #Fediverse is growing and we're welcoming more and more new single user instances but #federation can become challenging.
With #Relay instances, single user and smaller instances can quickly become federated and grow which is supported by many Fediverse applications like #snac #snac2 #Mastodon #Pleroma etc.

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.
Now I’m just trying to find a specific post that will do it so maybe I can actually figure out what exactly is going wrong.
Speaking of ActivityPub, anyone have some concise and simple breakdown documentation links handy? There’s kind of an overwhelming amount or information out there.
