       #HowTo install & run #snac on #FreeBSD - run your own #ActivityPub instance in the #Fediverse!In the last days I often got asked about #snac / #snac2 as an alternative to #Mastodon and I can highly recommend it! I few months ago, I already wrote a HowTo about setting snac up on a FreeBSD instance - might be worth to share again :) if you’re using snac, you might also want to use my relay service at https://fedi-relay.gyptazy.com to make your posts more visible in the Fediworld.#opensource #fediverse #fediworld #alternatives #community #FreeBSD #RUNBSD #BoxyBSD #activitypub #mastodon #relay #community #federatedhttps://gyptazy.com/install-snac2-on-freebsd-an-activitypub-instance-for-the-fediverse/

       @gyptazy The idea of a relay is new to me! Is this a new thing for the Fediverse? 🙂

       Relays in general are already available for a longer time and there’re also many ones available. My relay instance is new - it popped up of an idea when I saw many new #snac instances and someone showed relay links. I wouldn’t have thought that my relay instance would grow that quick, so I’m happy to see this gets appreciated by the community :)@emb

       @gyptazy That’s cool! I am self-hosting on a RPi and thinking about running snac. I don’t know how I missed fedi relays. I’ve been exploring the Fediverse organically. I use Toot, which allows you to see local and federated timelines of servers (even if you don’t have an account). I wondered how small instances could thrive without this app feature. Now I know! 😊

       Awesome! Feel free to join and snac runs perfectly fine on a RPi! I built #snac for #RISCV (for my #Starfive #visionfive2 board) which even runs there pretty smooth :) also @grunfink  is doing an absolutely great job as the dev behind the snac project. @emb
