I'm glad to announce the release of version 2.64 of #snac, the simple, minimalistic #ActivityPub instance server written in C. It includes the following changes (mostly bugfixes):

Some tweaks for better integration with https://bsky.brid.gy (the BlueSky bridge by brid.gy).

A corner case bug in the media proxying code has been fixed.

Hashtags can now include underscores.

The server now creates a pidfile inside the data directory.

Mastodon API: fixed a crash in the notification code, fixed autocapitalization in the OAuth login field (contributed by fkooman).

This release has been inspired by the song Take Me To The River by #Kaleida.
