Been seeing posts about #Snac2 and had a quick look. It looks very similar to #Mastodon but without the Java and so on. Are there really any benefits from using it as a server for Mastodon ?? Please

#Fediverse
@justine@bsd.cafe unless I misunderstood what you asked, you don’t really use it "as a server for Mastodon", you use it "as an alternative server for ActivityPub that is compatible with Mastodon and other Fediverse clients / servers". Which means, it has its benefits (light, written in C, BSD oriented, etc) but also may have a few drawbacks; I can’t list them but think about missing features (compared to Mastodon) and/or compatibility issues with some other software.
@joel@piou.foolbazar.eu Thank you Joel. I'm glad some folk are fluent in Justine speak and able to decode my cryptic posts. I always know what i mean in my head it just sometimes comes out all wrong.🤣
@justine@bsd.cafe mouhahaha 😆
It also happens to me. So I always turn it this way: I’m responsible for what I say, not what you understand! 🫢
@justine@bsd.cafe It's simple, almost no dependencies, you can host it everywhere.
But the experience isn't as complete or "polished" as with Mastodon.
If you want to, I can create you a test account on https://snac.bsd.cafe so you can try it yourself@stefano@bsd.cafe That would be cool thank you so much.
Just use the same username as here if you can "justine" ?@justine@bsd.cafe of course we can! I'll create the account later today, as soon as I'll be home and will send you (privately) the login details
