Is it safe to overwrite greetings.html (to adjust the "tim berners-lee just invented the WWW"-look 😀) or will some upgrade in the future reset it?

        also disallows AI contributions now :)

        a thread on a Codeberg issue titled "AI Policy", on the repository for Snac2.

Me: "Hiya, just coming by to ask whether or not this projects accepts AI-generated or assisted code or media, as I seek more projects to add to the no-ai list"

grunfink: "Hi. No AI contributions are accepted.

I've just updated the README to reflect this."

grunfink: "Much better, I've added a CONTRIBUTING.md file with more information about how to contribute, and a clearer statement that AI in snac's code is *not* welcome."

me: "oh hell yeah, will add Snac to the list in April's update for sure :)"

          @0x0@hachyderm.io Well it runs this snac instance, and occasionally I sit down to enjoy some slow computing experiencing the X Window System the way it was meant to be: Simple, twm-like (ctwm, technically) and text-oriented. ;)

                  What is Snac?

                  Snac (also known as ) is a simple, minimalistic ActivityPub instance. It is written in portable C and uses a file-based storage system with no database required.

                  It supports creating and managing user accounts, posting, following, and interacting with the wider Fediverse. It also includes a Mastodon-compatible API for use with third-party clients.

                  IMO: It is the best option for people who wants to self-host their own Fediverse instance.

                  What is YunoHost

                  TL;DR: Install Yunohost on Debian system, it manages your domains, email, SSl certificates and you can install multiple applications from its app catalog.

                  YunoHost is an operating system aiming to simplify server administration and therefore democratize self-hosting while making sure it stays reliable, secure, ethical and lightweight. It is a copylefted libre software project maintained by volunteers. Technically, it can be seen as a server distribution based on Debian GNU/Linux.

                      I spent the morning hacking up a way to have populate the Explore section of with trending posts, news, and hashtags. It’s really just piggybacking off of mastodon.social’s explore API, but it’s better than nothing at all!
