in a few hours i am probably going to federate and do some testing with a temp instance of snorf, a new bit of fedi software i have been hacking oninspired by honk but written in rust and mastodon api compatible, snorf is how i plan to stop having to deal with everything i find annoying about mastodonlet's hope nothing too stupid comes about as a result of said testing loltesting federation is... hard

snorf is also, crucially, just a single rust binary which uses a simple sqlite dbno redis, no need for anything fancy you need to host alongside itbut maybe postgres support gets added at some point

one of my goals with snorf is to make running fedi instances easy, cheap, and boringjust a static binary you install, a file you backup, and you should be able to support you and a bunch of friends easily on an old computer or small cloud instance

as far as i am aware, mastodon is likely to be the worst for interop

@pry maybe, but it would require a lot of wiring

About a month ago I gave a cool talk at Tokioconf on what shared-nothing amd work-stealing are, and how migrating our stack from nginx+lua to rust and tokio massively improved our performance...because work-stealing massively outperforms shared-nothing for our use casecheck it out the recording here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QN3BKks2As&list=PLgVIJ9TpEgOmHj0ADDpf-qGckYEJs4QCE&index=16
