I'm glad to announce the release of version 2.50 of #snac, the simple, minimalistic #ActivityPub instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:

#snak is really an impressive work, @grunfink.
Looking at the code I wonder where the "backported" xs library comes from: it looks very clean and nice...
Also, I've never seen C headers used for implementations: it's a clever trick that reduce the gap between #C and a more advanced language like #Oberon (:-D) but I wonder why you coded it this way.
The xs is an intentionally lightweight library I (with the help of some friends) started for a very different project that never was. As it adds some niceties to C coding, I use it everywhere. It's mostly feature-complete now, but I fix and add some things occasionally. These days, #snac is mostly its main user, as other projects that use it are pretty irrelevant.
Using C headers both for implementations and prototyping is somewhat of a perversion
