Sysadmin extraordinaire Stefano Marinelli (@stefano) has written this great, concise article on how to tune #nginx to improve #snac performance while serving media like images or videos.

Here we are! FediMeteo is landing in the American Continent!
The first Country covered is the USA - but Canada will follow shortly.

It’s already possible to follow US cities at this link: https://us.fedimeteo.com

The cities are listed alphabetically - I realize the list might not be very clear, but I’ll try to improve its readability in the coming days.

The format is: city_name__state so, for example, Washington D.C. will be: @washington__district_of_columbia

In the meantime, enjoy the forecasts!

Using #snac makes making bots a breeze. It’s a great tool!

I hate that it uses emoji for ui (what is a lock? What is a hand shake?), but outside of that it makes me appreciate fediverse more.

I can confirm that migrating from #Akkoma to #snac worked flawlessly.
I tried it last evening and it was failing but I think it was just a caching issue.

And now, let's start!

For those who want to watch yesterday's live chat on Fireside Fedi, here’s the link to the full video. We talked about the BSD systems, FediMeteo, snac, the BSD Cafe, the Open Source world, the Fediverse and... spaghetti

I've just enjoyed this fascinating conversation between @firesidefedi and @stefano, where the latter explains how he planted the seed of the incredibly friendly, great and extense community that is the BSD Cafe. Open source, owning you own data and the importance of interconnecting people is talked about here. Of course, Stefano also talked about https://fedimeteo.com/, his great project that makes weather information available to the whole Fediverse; this makes me, as the developer of #snac (one of the pieces of software that operates Fedimeteo), also a bit proud of being a part of.

As Stefano says, "you can't describe passion", but you can feel it from his words.

I've just noticed that all the #snac instances aren't listed on FediDB anymore (all the FediMeteo ones, the snac BSD Cafe one, etc.)

@dansup - any problem with getting the snac statistics? I see there's an issue already opened: https://github.com/fedidb/issues/issues/58

All the #FediMeteo instances have been updated to #snac 2.76
