https://codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2 and https://gotosocial.org/

The snac2 dev made it using only openssl and curl libraries. It doesn't even use a proper database, so it's very lightweight.

Gotosocial is basically mastodon but easier to set up on the server and lighter on resource usage.

I've heard of snac, but never knew about the database thing. What does it use? static files?

from my brief time hosting snac, iirc it stores data in JSON files
