After three months and 1.6k posts later on snac, I'm super happy. Main things that I like about running snac for my Fediverse presence:

Light on resources. I can run this on a potato if I wanted and it would run great (I'm not, but I could.)Backups are easy. Tar up the directory. Done.Migrations are easy. Install nginx, build snac, untar backup. Done.Quirky web interface. It takes a little to get used to it, but it is very functional and it's got character. I thought I would use Phanpy with it more, but I'm not. I enjoy the snac web interface.Works (mostly) with Mastodon clients.No crazy caching of photos, avatars and other media. This is a really big deal because my disk usage is so much lower than when I ran Mastodon.No database. NO DATABASE. So good.Fast. snac is really fast doing everything. It's nice.@grunfink@comam.es is awesome. Friendly and responsive.#fediverse #snac #snac2 #snacadmin #mastodon #phanpysocial #selfhost #selfhosted
