It is my 3rd month of running #snac #snac2 instance. I wanted to share a few words about how awesome this software is.
Few points that make snac icredibly good for my usecase are:
No database needed - means easy migration for me
No javascript - not a big fan of JS
No cookies - so users are not tracked
It only stores locally data about users on the local instance it doesnt download stuff from instances it federates with
Extremely low resource usage
Basically you compile snac you get a executable program that you can run as a deamon, you just need to point it to data directory in which all data is stored, it puts out HTTP on which web ui is visible, you can proxy it and that's all.
After 3 month of posting (2 active users and 3 semi active users) my data dir is ~500MB and memory usage is ~200MB
it means i can keep running it on my infrastructure without even thinking too much about load
@grunfink@comam.es thanks for such a awesome piece of software 🩷🩷🩷
---Reply--- the initra mf@me@doasu.dev (2026-05-24 02:49:48) I've only used #snac for about half a year, and my instance takes up ~250MB of disk space and ~25MB of memory. :)
I wish more modern software was like #snac2 (:
