cambrian.social 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.

Well, you're right, but also includes a web UI that allows full interaction with all its features, and that is what works in any browser, even text ones.

      Does your home page work in Dillo, Links, Netsurf?
      Even more: , an ActivityPub server I develop, works totally well with these browsers.

        Tempted to have a play with @stefano@bsd.cafe and see how it compares to . Obviously this is only for research as it couldn't possibly be fomo. 😂
        Anybody compared the two? If so what's your verdict?

          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)

            Okay, so is kinda amazing. It does everything I want and more, AND, is super minimal and bullshit free. This is the FOSS stuff I live for.

              Hello. Since you mentioned Faircamp, I want to share an idea. How about replacing Rust in the source code with either of these languages: ANSI C, Common Lisp, Scheme or Zig? I would like to see Faircamp as a lightweight alternative to Bandcamp in the same way Snac is a lightweight alternative to Mastodon.

              Anyway, there are some issues with AI development in Rust:

                Love

                I kept fat-thumbing when trying to open content warning'd/hidden posts on me phone...but I realised I can just edit the style.css to add a bigger margin. I should probably check out some of the proper stylesheets people have made (but there is something very rad about the default theme)

                  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 goal this week is to play with Message Formatting and Accepted HTML.

                      And as far as I can tell, the following HTML tags are accepted in snac messages:

                      • <a>
                      • <p>
                      • <br>
                      • <blockquote>
                      • <ul>
                      • <ol>
                      • <li>
                      • <cite>
                      • <small>
                      • <h2>
                      • <h3>
                      • <span>
                      • <i>
                      • <b>
                      • <u>
                      • <s>
                      • <pre>
                      • <code>
                      • <em>
                      • <strong>
                      • <hr>
                      • <img>
                      • <del>
                      And it looks like that the elements do not accept attributes (e.g. for <a> like title but they do accept href).

                      Actually, I added this post like:

                      My goal this week is to play with  [Message Formatting](https://comam.es/snac-doc/snac.5.html) and [Accepted HTML](https://comam.es/snac-doc/snac.5.html).

                      And as far as I can tell, the following HTML tags are accepted in snac messages:

                      - <code>&lt;p&gt;</code>

                      - <code>&lt;u&gt;</code>
                      - <code>&lt;s&gt;</code>
