Hi. Next #snac release will include a new field in server.json named favicon_url, that will allow to set the default favicon. For now, you can configure your HTTP frontend to serve $YOUR_HOST/favicon.ico to whatever icon you want.

how to change the favicon on snac? I seem to only be able to update it on the greetings page, didn't see any reference in the man pages. #snac

A question for my fellow #snac users. I am using snac web interface which overall fits me very well, but I am missing a certain functionality (or maybe I just do not know how to do it?).The "followed hashtags" feature on snac seems to just generate a bunch of buttons, one for each hashtag, that I can click on and read the posts for that hashtag. I would like to have something more akin to what you see on other fedi clients, where the posts for that hashtag will be found together in your main feed, along with the posts for people you follow. Is that possible in snac web interface at all, or should I switch to some other fedi client?

I think this is why #snac crashed last night when I posted the link to my blog post. The combination of the load from sending out to many ActivityPub servers and all those servers trying to generate a thumbnail card thing by hitting the website was just too much for the little Pi. I'll have to see if I can do anything to optimise caching...

If you’re reading this you have been successfully migrated as a follower to my stupidly underpowered Raspberry Pi hosted #snac instance. Let’s see how it does with nearly 700 followers. 😆

Part of running a #snac instance on a 256MB Raspberry Pi is working out how to do "stuff" without installing more #alpinelinux packages than you have RAM for.

Here's a script to backup to Backblaze B2 with just Jq as an additional dependency (and the included curl, tar, openssl etc.). It works so far...

Starting to play with #snac a bit more seriously on a 256MB Raspberry Pi 1 with a 40GB IDE laptop hard disk attached for reasons...
