    Is it possible to block federation with entire instances not for single user but for the whole instance in ?

    In the docs i can't find anyhing about it.

        I announce the release of version 2.77 of , the simple, minimalistic instance server written in C. It just reverts a feature included in previous version; links in posts were also included as attachments, but, while harmless and on spec, it made posts look ugly in some platforms, and what the world doesn't need is more ugly things.

          The last release fixes a problem with the Mastodon API. Now, apps (or webapps like Phanpy) properly work as the "inifite scrolling" has been fixed.
          Thanks, Stefano. To be fair, the merit for this fix goes to @cheeaun@mastodon.social (Phanpy's author), who brought to my attention where the problem was.

                              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.

                                        Took me a long time to understand why my home IP didn’t update in DNS.

                                        Turns out I was using my own script ( https://n4no.org/tools ) but that was on my now dead Mastodon instance. 🤦🏻‍♂️

                                        Also #snac does not support access tokens apparently which makes it much more difficult to just script posts from a remote machine (previously jsut one curl request with vanilla Mastodon). It’s easy to post from the snac server itself as it has commands to post but not via a remote request.

                                          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).
