     @ltning @rubenerd
     Those hardware specs are delightful (and it says a lot about @grunfink's work that snac is svelte enough to run in such a constrained environment; I can't fathom attempting to run full Mastodon on such specs)

     #snac is really awesome and @grunfink did an amazing job by creating this. It even runs smoothly on my RISC-V dev board which is really pretty slow.

     @gyptazy@gyptazy.com Still runs circles around a 1998 chip though. But it shows what good code can get out of questionable hardware.
