Snac2 is an excellent software solution for accessing the Fediverse. It is lightweight, very easy to compile and install, has minimal dependencies, and the development is progressing along a clear, clean, and logical path - thank you, @grunfink@comam.es
Since last December, BSD Cafe has had, among its services, a snac instance - https://snac.bsd.cafe - which has been used sparingly, mainly by some for testing purposes. I’ve kept it as a 'testing' option.
In light of the interest it is generating (we now have stable users) and given that development is evolving to allow for both inbound and outbound movement, I have decided to designate it as a stable solution for accessing the Fediverse and to consider it a primary service of the BSD Cafe.
It has always received the utmost attention, I have consistently updated it promptly, and it has always been accessible, but I have also modified all the descriptions to clarify that it is a stable and definitive solution.
It seems a bandwidth problem. Sometimes the VPSes say "1 gbit connection" but actually are really slow, especially when sending out stuff. @OpenBSDAms@bsd.network is a very good choice, I like their approach and their way of operating.
As for migrating: just remember to add -H to rsync and everything will be ok (I've been moving files from NetBSD to OpenBSD to FreeBSD and back and snac2 didn't complain at all)
I'm @stefano@bsd.cafe and I am testing snac2 as another option for the BSD Cafe project.Please, if you're interested in my posts, also follow my main account @stefano@bsd.cafeThis account will be used to test the system by following many accounts and interacting to assess snac2's performance and scalability.Have a great day!
