Talk Beginner First Talk

Hosting your own minimal fediverse server

Rejected

Session Description

This talk is an attempt to introduce Snac2, a minimal fediverse software, to a wider audience. Written in portable C, Snac2 uses bare minimum resources in the backend and offers a frontend that works without JavaScript. While being light weight, it is compatible with the popular Mastodon API and supports being used via apps supporting Mastodon. More people can thus run a fediverse server in a sustainable way without compromising on familiarity of interfaces. The talk will involve a tutorial about installation of a Snac2 instance and a demo of an instance that I run.
