lifeiswoohoo.com 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.
Posts that were liked or boosted can now be unliked and unboosted.
Outgoing message timeouts are no longer hardcoded and can be configured (see snac(8)
for more information).
Fixed a bug that caused some incorrect unfollows under special conditions (with shared inboxes enabled and users from the same instance that follow each other, the internal message distributor was confused).
Mastodon API: Added support for lists.
Added a header to avoid over-zealous caching in some browsers (contributed by louis77).
Added support for running and federating inside hidden networks like Tor, I2P or Loki (contributed by iwojima).
Fixed an error processing polls coming from Pleroma instances.

Usage tips: Use social media as little as possible. Go for a walk. Meet with friends. Read a good book.

I was taking a peek at the numbers at https://fedidb.org/software for some of the #Fediverse server softwares that I've run.
Some stuff that I found interesting... #GoToSocial MAU (Monthly Active Users) is smaller than #snac. I thought it would be the opposite.
Not too surprising, but #Mastodon instances have the highest density of users.
The average statuses per user is quite low for Mastodon, most likely because there's a lot of lurkers and inactive accounts (people who have tried and never came back).
It's great there's so many options for the Fediverse.

[x] Backups
Backups of a #snac instance is so easy with rsync. The only thing to remember is to use the -H option to keep the hard link references.
Support for custom Emojis has been added; they are no longer hardcoded, but read from the emojis.json
file at the server base directory. Also, they are no longer limited to string substitutions, but images as external URLs are also supported (see snac(8)
for more information).
Fixed a bug that caused some notifications to be lost when coming from a user in the same instance.
Added an additional check for blocked instances (sometimes, posts from blocked sites that were ancestors of legit posts were 'leaking' into the timeline).
On OpenBSD, if the disable_email_notifications
server flag is set to true
, unveil()
is not called for the execution of the /usr/sbin/sendmail
binary and pledge()
doesn't set the exec
promise.
