The Real Grunfink

I've just published version 2.91 of #snac, the simple, minimalistic #ActivityPub instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:

Fixed some local posts not being shown if the replied post is deleted.

Fixed web UI incorrect links to public posts for some configurations.

Fixed encoding bug in Mastodon-style share links.

Fixed an error that made imposible to leave empty the following hashtags or blocked hashtags from the web UI.

Include post attachments in the RSS feed entries.

Added some OpenBSD-specific documentation (contributed by oxzi).

Fixed some timezones (contributed by matoken).

Fixed some crashes (special thanks to Louis Merlin for helping me with this).

Updated Docker scripts to avoid generating a useless log file.

Fixed several memory leaks, key generation errors and HTML inconsistencies (contributed by dandelions).

Added ostatus.org and FEP-3b86 data to Webfinger objects.

Added a new CONTRIBUTING.md file. Among other guidelines, I explicitly say there that AI contributions are NOT accepted.

snac is now available as a Yunohost app. Thank you very much to Bruno Cesar Rocha for this.

Your snac posts can be fancyMessages in snac allow a special subset of Markdown, that includes emphasized, strong, monospaced, strikethrough and underlined styles by surrounding text with one asterisk, two asterisks, backquotes, two tildes and two underlines, respectively.

Line breaks are respected and output as you write them.


Prepending a greater-than symbol in a line makes it a quote:

This is quoted text

All angle-prepended lines are grouped in the same blockquote

It also allows preformatted text using three backquotes in a single line:

  /* this is preformatted text */

  struct node {
      struct node *prev;
      struct node *next;
  };

• One level bullet lists
• are also supported,
• by starting a line with a hyphen or asterisk followed by a space.

URLs like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page are made clickable.

Links can also be written in standard Markdown style.

Some emojis: 😆 ❤️ 🍺 🤷 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Image URLs written in standard Markdown style for images are converted to ActivityPub attachments.

Three minus symbols in a line make a separator:

---

Headings can be defined using one, two, or three hash symbols in the beginning of a line, followed by a blank:

header level 1header level 2header level 3But please take note that every ActivityPub implementation out there have its own rules for filtering out these formatting styles, so you can only guess what other people will really see.

These acrobatics are better documented in the snac(5) man page.
