I am just so amazed at how well the @phanpy web client works with #snac. I started self-hosting phanpy last night (it is a pure static web app) and it works seamlessly. Makes me very happy when things go like they're expected. Thank you for this @cheeaun!
If you're looking to host your very own single-user/a-few-users #fediverse instance, you cannot go wrong with #snac. It is simple to install on Ubuntu and works very well with some really solid clients. It is also written in C, so it is fast, with few dependencies. Great work @grunfink, you've got a new monthly supporter on Ko-fi!
Finally installed #snac2@grunfink! Straightforward process, no major issues. It works very well with @Tusky Only issue I've had has been adding attachments. Is that supported or is there a file limit size? In any case, great job. Big fan so far.
Getting #snac running on this server has been straightforward. I spent longer hesitating on the top-level domain. Took a few minutes to get the systemd service up and running, but that was the most complicated step so far.
Well, that was fun - thought I'd do a little filesystem cleansing and ended up accidentally (I did not check my work, tut tut tut) removed fedi VM ( I thought it was on a different disk, whoops!) - joy!
#Backups are available of course and restoring now. #Snac2 being the easiest to restore so that's back online first! I've lost today, but that's OK I've been pretty quiet!
tapi memang benar, kalo hanya sekedar host app seperti #snac2 atau #GotoSocial saja maka pakai VPS spek tinggi dan host di luar negeri itu terlalu berlebihan.
Aye pastikan pakai Vultr dalam 3 bulan ini dengan 1C 1Gb RAM dan 25 Gb SSD ternyata lebih daripada cukup. Pemakaian CPU lebih sering idle daripada kerjanya (baru kerja max kalo dipakai compress data untuk dibackup) dan Mem hanya kepakai 300 - 400 Mb saja dengan 1 load balancer, 3 http server, 2 app fediverse.
Instance juga tak terlalu ramai dengan pemakaian bandwidth sebesar 8Gb saja perbulannya, bahkan SSD tak kunjung penuh meski storage media sudah dilokalkan.
dengan segala keterbatasannya lebih suka pakai #snac2 versi web, entah kenapa pakai aplikasi pihak ketiga itu sering banget error dan atau banyak fitur tak bisa bekerja sebagai mana mestinya.
Enafore/Semaphore yang paling lumayan. Feditext tak bisa render boost properly, sedangkan Phanpy selalu menyatakan ada notifikasi setiap beberapa detik.
