snac.rblgk.sh 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.

I'm not sure why, but it seems as if the GitHub Continuous Integration checks are just... hanging? They were queued for a really long time and I stopped looking and when I checked again it was like "running" or whatever for 9 hours, but clearly probably nothing is actually happening.
Builds locally OK!
It's been a couple of days since I submitted that PR, and my apologies for lagging upstream as well. My life has been kinda, off.
I'll probably get around to emailing the MacPorts' dev mailing list if it still seems to be stalled and no one else beats me to it. Presumably, eventually, it will get merged!
Thanks again to you and others (e.g. dandelions, postscriptum, piefed) for the continued improvements!

Hashtag following also allow URLs to RSS feeds of ActivityPub objects (like e.g. https://mastodon.social/tags/ThankYouTuesday).
Users can now configure a webhook to receive an HTTP POST for every notification. This can be useful for implementing bots that react to activities, like autorepliers, chatbots or interactive textual games (see snac(1)
for more information).
The number of pending follow confirmations is shown next to the "people" link.
Faster performance metrics (contributed by dandelions).
Improved lowercasing in hashtags (contributed by postscriptum).
A search-by-url tweak for implementations that return 200 for invalid webfinger queries (e.g. piefed).
Mastodon API: added follow confirmation endpoints, fixed collisions in attachment file names.
Fixed potential crashes in attachment uploads.

#snac frens: what is the "correct" way to use a custom favicon? I've read and reread the docs and I'm not seeing anything about it. Is it something I'd have to do at the proxy level? (using Caddy BTW)
A quick fc-list | grep -i emoji
does indeed show the correct font is installed.

Does anyone have a screenshot of Gargron's first Mastodon post?I don't have such a gem, but I have here the first #snac post. Yes, I know the relevancy is astronomically inferior, but not for me 😆
Thanks @grunfink@comam.es !
Just FYI, nsxiv, imv, and swayimg all support AVIF as well, although imv did oddly have a glitch with one of the images I tested it with. I'd never seen that happen before.
According to some people I've spoken with, JPEG is still king for high-fidelity images and minimizing loss upon re-compression, but AVIF just totally whips the llama's posterior when it comes to relatively high fidelity at crazy low file sizes (high compression).
AVIF is often noticeably better quality than #WebP at the same (low) file size and resolution, and parsecs beyond what JPEG can do with high compression factors.
If only the fediverse supported it!!! :(
We barely have WebP support (mostly on #GtS, maybe #snac (haven't tried it)), not on #Mastodon.
In the docs i can't find anyhing about it.

The last #snac release fixes a problem with the Mastodon API. Now, apps (or webapps like Phanpy) properly work as the "inifite scrolling" has been fixed.Thanks, Stefano. To be fair, the merit for this fix goes to @cheeaun@mastodon.social (Phanpy's author), who brought to my attention where the problem was.

Thanks, @grunfink - this was one thing that kept some of my friends away from self-hosting with snac, and now I can help them to have their own digital home.
xs
code is specially crafted to parse the JSON files in use in the ActivityPub protocol, which are a) mostly small, and b) they have very few numbers, so the string to double conversion happens almost never.Regarding the enum numbers: they are surely arbitrary, but the rationale there is that they are all ASCII control codes (so: less than 32) that should never happen in a JSON file (and, if they occasionally appear, they are converted to their Unicode representations). The correspondence is:
XS_TYPE_STRING 0x02 ASCII: STX (start of text)So, yes, they are arbitrary, but make some fucking sense, or at least a little bit.
XS_TYPE_TRUE 0x06 ASCII: ACK (acknowledge)
XS_TYPE_FALSE 0x15 ASCII: NAK (negative ack.)
XS_TYPE_LIST 0x1d ASCII: GS (group separator)
XS_TYPE_LITEM 0x1f US (unit separator)
XS_TYPE_DICT 0x1c ASCII: FS (file separator)
Hopefully Phanpy works better now for folks on #snac . Took me some time to investigate this issue https://codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2/issues/164#issuecomment-4415162 , found that `Access-Control-Expose-Headers: Link` header is needed for `Link` header to be read by the browser's `fetch`, used by Masto.js to paginate requests 🙇♂️

I submitted a Pull Request to update MacPorts' snac to 2.76 here:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/28373
GitHub Actions Continuous Integration checks passed!
It's up to someone else with write access to merge it.
Thanks to you and dandelions and shtrophic (and anyone else I may have missed) for the continued contributions and improvements!

Turns out I was using my own script ( https://n4no.org/tools ) but that was on my now dead Mastodon instance. 🤦🏻♂️
Also #snac does not support access tokens apparently which makes it much more difficult to just script posts from a remote machine (previously jsut one curl request with vanilla Mastodon). It’s easy to post from the snac server itself as it has commands to post but not via a remote request.
Added Webmention support for links (Markdown-style or direct) written in a post.
Added new command-line options for list maintenance.
Display custom emoji in more places (contributed by dandelions).
Mastodon API: fixed infinite scroll in many clients (thanks to cheeaun for giving me the clue), added /api/v1/accounts/.../lists
endpoint (contributed by dandelions).
Email notifications can now be sent via libcurl
SMTP instead of spawning the /usr/sbin/sendmail
program. To use this new feature, some additional server configuration is needed, see snac(8)
(contributed by shtrophic).
