I'm glad to announce the release of version 2.57 of #snac, the simple, minimalistic #ActivityPub instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:
Added support for listening on UNIX-like sockets.
Don't allow empty polls.
Added support for Markdown-style images (converted to attachments) and strikethrough text.
Added support for incoming
Incoming
Blocks are also notified.
Mastodon API: fixed a cache bug when following local users.

I guess Unix sockets could be used to write a CGI interface to Snac:
- check the socket file esists
- read a pid file
- check the /proc/$PID/exe point to snac bin
- if any of the above fail, double fork, start snac, create Unix socket
- send all of the HTTP request over the Unix socket and send back the response to the browser.
Do you think it would work?
