#snac2 #fediverse #frugalfediverse

Like on resources. I can run this on a potato if I want and it would still run great (I'm not, but I could*.)

• Backups are easy. Tar up the directory. Done.
• Migrations are easy. Install nginx, build snac, untag backup. Done.
• Quirky web interface. It takes a little to get used to it, but it is very functional and it's got character. I thought I would use Phanpy with it more, but I'm not. I enjoy the snac web interface.
• Works (mostly) with Mastodon clients.
• No crazy caching of photos, avatars and other media. This is a really big deal because my disk usage is so much lower than when I ran Mastodon.
• No database. NO DATABASE. So good.
• Fast. snac is really fast doing everything. It's nice.
• @grunfink@comam.es is awesome. Friendly and responsive.

After the mastodon.social DDOS I thought it would be a good idea to have my own instance, so I installed #snac2. It is indeed light and fast, but unfortunately I found some operational bugs that stopped me from getting the most out of it. So now I'm trying #gotosocial. I'm giving my contacts a bit of a rollercoaster, but I guess you have to break eggs to make an omlette.

@nick #snac2 looks really cool. I wonder if it has sufficient #Mastodon api support for account migration. Also I think it would be even cooler if it was a CGI binary or an inetd activated service ^^

I sincerely love you weirdos. <3

A combination of two "X all the Ys!" memes with a "Pawn Stars best we can do" meme in the middle: "X all the Y" guy: I want an amazing community of noble-minded people to study ethics with and change the world!! Pawn Stars with the faces of the fediverse logo, the mastodon logo, and the logos for snac2 GoToSocial, and Honk in the background: Best we can do is a bunch of cool weirdos with similar nerdy interests "X all the Y" guy's reply: I'll take it!!!

newbie question to #snac2 admins: how can I modify my favicon? I know that there's a definition on compile time, but it's the only way? cc: @grunfink
