Someone linked this on IRC earlier and it looks interesting:

codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2

Lightweight activitypub instance written in C - and it uses pledge/unveil when building it for OpenBSD.

It's in my bookmarks. I've been meaning to move to my own mastodon instance for a while but all of the fedi software I've seen so far is basically crap.

I've bookmarked this project and will investigate it at a later date.

@libreleah please report your experience here. I might also be interested!

@libreleah If snac had been around in 2019 then I would have forked that instead of starting Epicyon, since I was largely a C coder.

I run one of the biggest snac2 instances -- all of eighteen users! -- and would be happy to answer any questions you might have. It's quality software developed by a quality person.

@libreleah it’s very lightweight. I’m running an instance of it on a machine with 32MB and a K6-II, and it’s plenty fast.

More than interesting, I dare say this is the only sane way to access the Fediverse.
(this is obviously posted from a self-hosted snac instance)
@vv221 @libreleah I'm currently thinking about migrating from Pleroma to snac, but there's a few things that prevent me from doing it yet. First of them being that I'd like to perform a migration in the good old meaning (replace the software by something else while keeping contents online) and not in the Fediverse meaning (just inform your followers that you're moving to another account with a distinct name), and it looks like it would need me to investigate a lot of things, as it's not an available option yet.
