cablespaghetti.dev 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.
Feel free to take a look.

Given #snac's low bar requirements, I think any modern web browser is fine. I use Firefox, but totally agree on the heavy side (I have an unresolved love+hate relation with Firefox). I don't recommend any Chrome-based solution, because Google (though snac works great there).
I wish a small web browser (even a text-mode one!) with support for summary / details existed. In fact, if I ever develop another web app (a case that is probably not going to happen), I would not rely on this functionality.
summary and details tags (which #snac relies very much on), I would recommend it as the best web browser for a snac experience.CC: @gumnos@bsd.cafe
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.
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.
is amazing, and now it is even more with a simple click you can have your own #fediverse instance running with #snac
Waiting approval, here's the PR https://github.com/YunoHost/apps/pull/3375
Few more adjust and I will submit to the main #YunoHost appmarket place
Decidi subir uma instância do #Snac by @grunfink
#Snac is #Amazing
Melhor opção para quem quer hospedar uma instância single-user (ou para poucos users)
O meu usarei como minha instância em Inglês, provavelmente usarei mais como um microblog do que como uma rede social.
Continuo usando aqui como minha conta principal no Fediverso
My Snac: https://cesar.rocha.social/bruno
Obrigado @daltux "roubei" seu CSS :)
All Stylesheets available for Snac are too "crowded" for my taste. So I added space and pimped the forms to make them larger.
The difference from other Mastodon API clients is that this one has #snac as a first class citizen.
I'm so glad!
Attention #GoToSocial people: I have been testing @mastoblaster - an iOS Fediverse client - and it's working SO WELL! It's even grouping GtS notifications... something that Ivory doesn't do.
More info here:
Congratulations @stefano for your brilliant work on it!
#MastoBlaster has its own #Fediverse account - powered by #snac

Sin entrar en muchos detalles:
0. Elegir un nombre de dominio que os haga únicos: carnecruda.radio o carnecrudaradio.es o ... lo que sea.
1. Contrata un servidor en la red donde instalar el servidor ActivityPub (el protocolo base sobre el que funciona Mastodon); a vosotros os vendría muy bien tener otros servicios que funcionan como él porque no sois una mera red social. Asignáis el dominio al servidor y ...
2. Diseña cómo quieres la arquitectura: una cuenta única es buena sólo para primeros contactos o para anuncios. En vuestro caso una cuenta por cada uno de los que tenéis allí, que puedan expresarse sobre lo que sean y, dado que el límite de cuentas es muy lejano, una por cada sección o por cada invitado más o menos regular.
3. Migráis los seguidores y seguidos de la cuenta de ahora en mastodon.online @carnecrudaradio@mastodon.online a la cuenta base como @carnecruda@carnecruda.radio o cualquier cosa sencilla de recordar.
4. Comenzáis a publicar y a seguir (y tal vez a bloquear) a personas de otras servidores.
5. Y ya, lo demás es ponerse a construir una red y dejar que crezca y crezca y vaya por ahí haciendo cosas.
Sigue consultando porque aquí hay personal muy válido para estos detalles.
Y, ojo, esto sin saber si tenéis más contenido. Los podcasts, se me ocurre, pueden estar alojados en funkwhale, otro software libre y del fediverso con el que conectar. Hay muchas más opciones pero yo diría que lo principal es el dominio y luego el servidor. Y de ahí a las estrellas. 🙂
After quite some time, I’m finally ready to share this.
MastoBlaster is now available in public testing on TestFlight.
It is a lightweight, privacy-first Fediverse client for iOS, built around a simple idea: fast, small, predictable behavior, and first-class support for snac.
What makes it different:
• snac-first by design, not "compatible by accident"
• Works with all Mastodon API compatible software, including Mastodon, snac, GoToSocial, Akkoma, and others
• EXIF stripping on upload (HDR and orientation preserved)
• Optional on-device alt text generation via Apple Intelligence for your uploads and for images in your timeline
• Markdown posting for snac
• Granular notifications, grouping, multi-account
• Blocking and moderation tools
• Very small footprint, very low RAM usage
Alt text generation happens entirely on device via Apple APIs on supported hardware. Nothing is sent to external services.
It is built around my own workflow and priorities. It may not be for everyone, and that is perfectly fine.
Important note:
MastoBlaster will always be free for BSD Cafe users, illumos Cafe users, and for anyone connecting to a snac instance, including self-hosted ones.
The app is already usable, but this is still a test phase. I am looking for feedback, bug reports, and real-world usage insights.

Stay tuned.

Hi @grunfink,
where does one typically serve non-css assets for a #snac #theme?
https://comam.es/snac-doc/snac.8.html doesn't mention.
Minor tweak to improve signature key retrieving for some Wordpress configurations.
Fixed web UI incorrect links to actor public pages for some configurations.
Fixed mismatch in the accounts being followed number in the public and people pages.
Notifications can be filtered by category (contributed by byte).
Dates are shown adjusted to the account's time zone (contributed by dandelions).
Configurable limit for poll items (contributed by dandelions).
Fixed incorrect scope when editing a post (contributed by dandelions).
Change the strip_exif logic to work with the already existing OpenBSD sandbox (contributed by oxzi).
Mastodon API: Add poll creation (contributed by davidrv00), fixed a voting bug (contributed by davidrv00), added a fix to verify_credentials (contributed by ag-eitilt).
Updated Czech, German, Brazilian Portuguese, Spanish translations (contributed by pmjv, zen, daltux).
If you find #snac useful, please consider buying grunfink a coffee or contributing via LiberaPay.
Regarding an OpenBSD package, I'm sure it would be very easy to do. OpenBSD for me is first class, and #snac works great there.
https://fedi-relay.gyptazy.com is a tech related relay instance that connects over 100 instances, focussing on things like #FreeBSD, #BGP, #IPv6, #Proxmox, #Homelab, #Linux and many other things! You can easily add a really when using #snac / #snac2, #mastodon, #pleroma and many other ones!
