Happy new year. I'm glad to announce the release of version 2.68 of
#snac, the simple, minimalistic
#ActivityPub instance server written in C. This release couldn't have been possible without the help of several fellow developers. It includes the following changes:
Fixed regression in link verification code (contributed by nowster).
Added ipv6 support for the https frontend connection (contributed by hb9hnt).
New "Like by URL" operation (contributed by dheadshot).
Added support for a Mastodon-like
/share link sharing URL, like the one provided by sites like
https://mastodonshare.com/ and such. To be able to use it, you must reconfigure your https proxy to redirect
/share to snac (see
snac(8)).
New linux landlock (sandboxing) support for enhanced security (contributed by shtrophic). It's still a bit experimental, so you have to enable it explicitly by recompiling with the WITH_LINUX_SANDBOX directive (e.g.
make CFLAGS=-DWITH_LINUX_SANDBOX).
Some search fixes regarding repeated matches.
The
export_csv cmdline operation now exports the CSV files inside a user's
export/ subdirectory instead of the current directory.
All CSV files to be imported must now be stored inside a user's
import/ subdirectory instead of the current directory.
Mastodon API: more timeline paging tunings (contributed by nowster), post language selected in apps is properly set.
The command-line operation
note new reads the
LANG environment variable to set the post's language.
A new command-line operation,
note_unlisted, allows posting "unlisted" or "quiet public" posts.
The maximum number of entries in users' RSS feeds and in outboxes can now be set via the
max_public_entries variable in the
server.json file.
Fixed broken support for
Audio objects.
Made xmpp and mailto URLs clickable.
