    The opportunity cost of car ownership is up, as is that of car nonownership.

        Ah it looks like you couldn't import a snac account with posts, followers and so on. So you'd basically be starting from scratch. Hmmmm.

          @justine it could be implemented (we already have a test implementation from akkoma, that I used to migrate my old broken instance). But we won’t implement it because snac is great, and I could never do anything to harm that project, because I love it and the dev is a very nice person.

              @justine@snac.smithies.me.uk @stefano@bsd.cafe I have instantiated snac, but it doesn't seem to be "federating". I seem to recall reading in some documentation or another that there's a thing one must do to federate, but actually searching for what I seem to remember seems fruitless.

                It's not federating? How do you mean exactly? If it's posts from others then you can simply add relays or as I do follow certain hashtags.
                You can follow hashtags easily to get more content using this site.

                    Gentle reminder, when someone is sharing some small piece of resistance they have done, DO NOT SHIT ON IT. Do not tell them it isn't enough or it's still bad because blah blah other stuff...

                    Everyone is tired and overwhelmed and trying to find some accessible way they can push back. Cheer that!

                    Celebrate the small; celebrate the imperfect.

                    No single action is gonna solve everything, but a whole bunch of small actions start the sea change.

                    Don't punch down when we all need lifting up.

                    ☝️Two follow up thoughts from the conversations on this thread:

                    Patience.
                    For a lot of people, this is their first foray into non-compliance. They are going to start with small things within their comfort zone. This isn't a failure to do bigger things, this is training for it.

                    Self compassion.
                    If you are finding yourself angry at how little others are doing, you may be burned out. Rest is resistance too, as is pivoting to joy or humour in how you protest.

                    Self hosting is the way to prevent future problems like this. Just don't choose Mastodon because it is rather heavy on resources.

                    Have a look at , or or even - all perfectly hostable even from Raspberry Pis. And if you are only interested in hosting one to a handful accounts you won't miss anything from Mastodon. Although GotoSocial can also hosts 1000s of users (the other two mentioned, less so)

                          As a mainly-Linux user, you've eloquently expressed a lot of concerns that have been gnawing at me for some years. The calm, cohesion and independence of the BSDs is becoming increasingly attractive.

                          There is a person I've been helping for a while who runs two instances, one and one .

                          Yesterday, they suffered severe file system corruption on their device, and I lent them a hand with the recovery. For GoToSocial, they restored the DB from the previous backup and got it running again. For snac, although a few files were lost, no action was necessary... it just started back up and did what it had to do, bringing the instance back to full operation.

                          This goes to show that when software is well-designed and intentionally kept simple, it's also easier to get back up and running when something goes wrong. In this case, snac's "files-only" approach demonstrated excellent resilience.

                          Thanks, @grunfink !

                              My snac instance at zero.slothrop.org had become unreachable overnight. I couldn't even ssh into it anymore, so I reckon the problem was somewhere on the OS level, not with snac.

                              Fixed it the old-school way, by unplugging and reconnecting the power supply. Now the Raspi that holds the instance is running off a power bank 🙂

                                @piepants For me, snac has been really good! Easy to set up, and once that’s done, it just purrs along. No performance issues on a Raspi Zero 2W behind an aging home router.

                                I’m running it on Debian, but I would expect snac to function just as well on *BSD, if not better.
