      Hi, author here. The xs code is specially crafted to parse the JSON files in use in the ActivityPub protocol, which are a) mostly small, and b) they have very few numbers, so the string to double conversion happens almost never.

      Regarding the enum numbers: they are surely arbitrary, but the rationale there is that they are all ASCII control codes (so: less than 32) that should never happen in a JSON file (and, if they occasionally appear, they are converted to their Unicode representations). The correspondence is:

      XS_TYPE_STRING 0x02 ASCII: STX (start of text)
      XS_TYPE_TRUE 0x06 ASCII: ACK (acknowledge)
      XS_TYPE_FALSE 0x15 ASCII: NAK (negative ack.)
      XS_TYPE_LIST 0x1d ASCII: GS (group separator)
      XS_TYPE_LITEM 0x1f US (unit separator)
      XS_TYPE_DICT 0x1c ASCII: FS (file separator)
      So, yes, they are arbitrary, but make some fucking sense, or at least a little bit.

        Thank you!

        I submitted a Pull Request to update MacPorts' snac to 2.76 here:

        https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/28373

        GitHub Actions Continuous Integration checks passed!

        It's up to someone else with write access to merge it.

        Thanks to you and dandelions and shtrophic (and anyone else I may have missed) for the continued contributions and improvements!

        (these modest diffs were prepared in part while listening to "Garlic Braid" by LMNO & D-STYLES: https://d-styles.bandcamp.com/track/garlic-braid [the 1st single from the upcoming full length album: Three Mimes & an Elephant)

            I'm glad to announce the release of version 2.76 of , the simple, minimalistic instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:

            Added Webmention support for links (Markdown-style or direct) written in a post.

            Added new command-line options for list maintenance.

            Display custom emoji in more places (contributed by dandelions).

            Mastodon API: fixed infinite scroll in many clients (thanks to cheeaun for giving me the clue), added /api/v1/accounts/.../lists endpoint (contributed by dandelions).

            Email notifications can now be sent via libcurl SMTP instead of spawning the /usr/sbin/sendmail program. To use this new feature, some additional server configuration is needed, see snac(8) (contributed by shtrophic).

              Oh well lesson learned. Be careful how many large photos you post on your single user instance. Just DDoS myself for a moment there. Looked at the stats on and I was maxing out the 100Mb uplink. Thank God for the fantastic Andrews & Arnold 1G/100Mb fttp connection.

                just moved my website to another server before I move. I've successfully rsynced my snac directory and reinstalled it on the new server with no apparent breakage.

                edit: most of my posts are missing. I thought they were there after the move, but maybe it was just browser cache? I'll have to hook up the old drive to my laptop and see if I can resync
