Interesting, I never noticed #snac completely renders federated WordPress posts.
Another small marvel from truly excellent software.

If you want to change the domain, you must move all your accounts from the old server to the new one, while both instances are operative.

#ThankYou

This phrase appears in the "under the hood" section of my blog.
Just now I was reading a post by an "influencer" on a well-known social media platform. The post was biased, lacking in content, useless. Digital waste. A waste of bits and energy. Shortly after, I read a fantastic post written by a user of a #snac instance, and I know it's running on a Raspberry Pi, at their home.
And that phrase immediately came to mind.

Goodnight, world.

and this

https://comam.es/snac-doc/snac.8.html#Migrating_from_Mastodon_to_snac

If you want to move from one #snac to another, it's mostly the same.

MUTE: silences an author forever. You'll never read anything from this poster anymore. Like block in Mastodon and other implementations, but without sending a Block activity.

Hide: hides a post and everything hyerarchically below (i.e. the full tree). The conversation won't be shown to you forever, and any incoming post in any of the levels will be dropped. No other part is informed about it, it's just a local operation.

Delete: deletes a post from your timeline. If it's part of a conversation, the branches below are left dangling, but are still shown in you timeline. Also, if you are the author of the post, a Delete activity is sent to everyone involved, so your post (hopefully) disappears everywhere.

For today's #ThankYouTuesday, I'd like to thank everyone who supports the Fediverse. So, that means *you*. Yes, you, the one reading this.
Thank you!

The Fediverse truly is for everyone: if you don't have the skills or means to set up your own instance, you can join one of the public instances that aligns with your aspirations. If you can and want to, you can create your own instance, and thanks to lightweight (and interoperable) software, you can do it with spare hardware or very affordable VPS.
So thank you to all of you, friends of the Fediverse!

@announcements the BSD cafe's #snac instance has single-handedly motivated me to try self-hosting it in my RPi. Great job @stefano!

The #BSDCafe #snac instance has been upgraded to 2.80

#BSDCafeServices #BSDCafeUpdates

Mastodon API: fixed a regression (introduced in previous version in the "boosts disappear in Tusky" fix) that interrupted timelines.

Hello Fedi friends!

My child and I arrived in Italy yesterday to spend all of July at my parents' 🇮🇹

What's the first thing I did this morning? Following @milano to have weather forecasts here in my feed.

Special thanks to @stefano for creating this incredible project.

For those of you not familiar with #FediMeteo, it covers 2893 cities in 38 countries. All powered by a 4€/month VPS with #snac and #freeBSD:

Grazie Stefano! 🙏✨🏆

Added a server-wide Webmention hook; this way, if somebody out there (that supports Webmention) links to a user or post in this instance, a notification is sent (this is the complementary of what was implemented in version 2.76).

Fixed regression while sending email via pipe on OpenBSD.

Fixed Markdown parsing when the URL has parenthesis.

Always show the 'pending follow confirmations' section if there are any (even if the toggle is off).

If a metadata value is an account handler, it's also tried to be validated (rel="me" links).

Another search by URL tweak (this time for Pixelfed links).

Mastodon API: fixed a bug that made some boosts disappear after being shown in apps like Tusky, added followed hashtags maintenance, other minor changes.

Renamed command-line actions create_list to list_create and delete_list to list_remove.

The default favicon URL can be changed from the server configuration.

New command-line option export_posts, to export all posts by a user in a JSON format compatible with the one generated by Mastodon.

The command-line options to send notes also allow an optional -r argument, to set the URL of a Fediverse post this note is a reply to.

I don't know how many web sites out there implement Webmention (I guess very few), but given that it has been very simple to implement, here it is.

Long live the non-big-tech Internet.

Thanks @grunfink@comam.es for the #snac server, @stefano@bsd.cafe for the blog posts that pointed me to it, @voron@snac.nya.pub for the theme and @manton@manton.org for motivating me with your book
