Hollo

Introducing #Hollo. Hollo is an #ActivityPub-enabled single-user microblogging software. Although it's for a single user, it also supports creating and running multiple accounts for different topics.

It's headless, meaning you can use existing #Mastodon client apps instead, with its Mastodon-compatible APIs. It has most feature parity with Mastodon. Two big differences with Mastodon is that you can use #Markdown in the content of your posts and you can quote another post.

Oh, and Hollo is built using #Bun and #Fedify.

Hollo 0.2.0 released! #Hollo is a single-user federated microblogging software which is #ActivityPub-enabled and powered by #Fedify.

The key changes of this release include:

1. Thanks to @thisismissem, now you can report remote accounts and posts.

2. Added two-factor authentication support.

3. Thanks again to @thisismissem, Hollo improved alignment on Mastodon API changes about OAuth and apps.

4. Thanks again to @thisismissem, RFC 8414 for OAuth Authorization Server metadata endpoint. It will improve interoperability between Hollo and Mastodon-compatible client apps.

5. Renamed the Data menu from the administration dashboard to Federation, and:

   • Now posts also can be force-refreshed.
   • Now the number of messages in the task queue is shown.

6. Custom emojis now can be deleted from the administration dashboard.

7. Thanks to @helge, PORT and ALLOW_PRIVATE_ADDRESS environment variables are introduced.

8. Added a favicon.

9. Dropped support for Redis, which was an optional dependency.

You can upgrade to Hollo 0.2.0 using the following ways:

• To Railway users: Just redeploy the Hollo service!

• To Docker users: Switch your Hollo image to ghcr.io/dahlia/hollo:0.2.0 or simply latest!

• To manual installers: Fetch the stable branch and switch over to it!

Oh, and the minimum supported version of PostgreSQL has been raised to 16, so please be careful when updating.

In the next version of #Hollo, you'll see the number of messages stacked in your task queue in the administration dashboard. This gives you an idea of how busy your instance is.

The next version of #Hollo's administration dashboard will have a Federation menu instead of a Data menu, and will allow you to force refresh posts as well as accounts.

@andy47 Apparently the MinIO settings from it does not work. How about using AWS S3 or Cloudflare R2 instead?

今日Fedify/Holloのブースに訪問してくれた皆様、本当にありがとうございました‼️機会があれば是非またお会いましょう！

@andy47 How did you configure your object storage?

Is this thing on? I’m attempting to use my own fedi-server thanks to the lovely people @hollo

@andy47 What client app do you use? There are some client apps that allow you to set your avatar, e.g., Elk.

10月26日（土）に開催されるOSC 2024 Tokyo/FallにFedify/Hollo合同で出展します！可愛いFedifyのロゴのシールと『自分だけのフェディバースのマイクロブログを作ろう！』日本語版の紙の本を持って行く予定です。よろしくお願いします。

#Hollo's GitHub repository now has 200 stars!

Now that I started using @hollo on the side ( @maybeanerd@hollo.cluster.diluz.io ) to see how well it runs on my selfhosted k3s cluster, I can appreciate all the multi-account work done in @moshidon

Seeing a post on an account and then liking it from the other - that's so unnecessarily cool

@maybeanerd Apparently now it works well! Thank you!

Thanks to @thisismissem, Hollo 0.2.0 will support reporting remote users and posts! As it implements Mastodon-compatible API, any Mastodon clients that implement reporting could work with Hollo 0.2.0.

If you want to try it in advance, please give ghcr.io/dahlia/hollo:0.2.0-dev.185 a try (or just canary)!

Was really quite fun implementing Reporting & Flag activities in @hollo today, and not particularly hard.. I think touching Drizzle ORM was the most painful part (and figuring out how to test out what I was building)

Would be kinda nice to have a basic CLI client to Hollo to use during development or something. Maybe there's a Mastodon CLI client?

Got bored today so hacked up basic support for the Mastodon Report API for @hollo — https://github.com/dahlia/hollo/pull/41

It only supports reporting remote posts/actors, although does keep a record of sent reports (even though you could technically do fire-and-forget, it's not a great practice)

That's my little gift to @hongminhee for all the fantastic work they're doing

#Hollo 0.2.0 will have two-factor authentication support using time-based OTP!

If you want to give it a try right now, you can get it in ghcr.io/dahlia/hollo:0.2.0-dev.183 or just canary.

Finally, Hollo 0.1.0 released! #Hollo is a single-user federated microblogging software which is #ActivityPub-enabled and powered by #Fedify.

Hollo has the most of features that Mastodon has except for moderation tools, and also include:

• CommonMark (a.k.a. Markdown) and up to 4,096 characters per post
• Misskey-style quotes (compatible with Misskey, Akkoma, Fedibird, etc)
• Misskey-style emoji reactions (both Unicode emojis and custom emojis are supported; compatible with Misskey, Akkoma, kmyblue, etc)
• Generally much relaxed limitations (more poll options, more attachments, and so on)
• … and many more!

If you're interested in Hollo, please give it a try! There are several ways to install it: using Railway, using Docker (and Docker Compose), or manually.

If you're already using Hollo, please upgrade it to v0.1.0:

• To Railway users: Just redeploy the Hollo service!
• To Docker users: Switch your Hollo image to ghcr.io/dahlia/hollo:0.1.0 or simply latest!
• To manual installers: Fetch the stable branch and switch over to it!

@thisismissem No, we don't have any mechanism to send Flag activities to other servers yet, but it's on our roadmap!

Hollo 是一款无头微博软件，它实现了 Mastodon API。 这意味着您可以使用任何与 Mastodon 兼容的客户端与其进行交互。 然而，实际上，由于 Mastodon API 的实现方式不同， 某些客户端可能无法按预期工作。 以下是一些经过 Hollo 测试的客户端。

HolloはMastodon APIを実装したヘッドレスマイクロブログソフトウェアです。 これは理論的にはHolloと相互作用できるMastodon互換クライアントであれば何でも使用できることを意味します。 しかし、実際にはMastodon APIを実装する方法の違いにより、一部のクライアントが予想どおりに動作しないことがあります。Holloでテストされたクライアントをここに列挙します。

Hollo는 Mastodon API를 구현한 헤들리스 마이크로블로깅 소프트웨어입니다. 이는 이론적으로는 Hollo와 상호작용할 수 있는 Mastodon 호환 클라이언트라면 무엇이든 사용할 수 있다는 것을 의미합니다. 그러나 실제로는 Mastodon API를 구현하는 방식의 차이로 인해 일부 클라이언트가 예상대로 작동하지 않을 수 있습니다. Hollo에서 테스트된 클라이언트를 여기에 나열합니다.

#Hollo is a headless microblogging software that implements the Mastodon API. This means that you can use any Mastodon-compatible client to interact with it. However, in practice, some clients may not work as expected due to differences in the way they implement the Mastodon API. Here are some of the clients that have been tested with Hollo:

@saschanaz That's a good idea!

@esther Now Hollo supports account migration!

The most common pitfall for first-time #Hollo users is deploying Hollo behind a reverse proxy and forgetting to set BEHIND_PROXY=true, which causes federation issues and wasted time trying to resolve them.

To help users avoid this common pitfall, we've introduced a warning on Hollo's setup page when Hollo is behind a reverse proxy and the BEHIND_PROXY is off.
