Is there any Mastodon-like ActivityPub software that auto-fetches replies from unfollowed accounts? I'd love to just host my own instance, but I hate that it means you don't see so much content. Does do this?

In other words, what’s the best software for a single-user instance?

I can definitely recommend #Snac as that's what is powering my instance.

@justine @galileo Thanks — does snac fetch replies from accounts you’re not following?

Only if one of your mutuals comments, like or boosts said post. Otherwise you can follow hashtags using fedibuzz or subscribe to a relay and follow hashtags from it.

@i @justine @galileo I feel like the only people/instances who participate in relays are trolls and bigots and Nazis and spammers and other weirdos.

@jsit @justine @galileo why do you gotta call out my 2111 relay subscriptions like that, is federation for people without any friends really that bad :(

What software suits you best depends on your needs and possibilites, e.g. if it should run in a #LAMP environment.

About replies... not sure, if #Fedilab might offer such a feature on client-side.

@dumpsterqueer That’s so exciting, thanks! I think I might try to set this up for myself sometime.
