It's been a fun weekend building a new working fediverse applikation.
The tech stack so far..
Backend: Go — fast, simple, great concurrency. No magic, just code.
Frontend: SvelteKit — feels like writing HTML that actually works. SSR out of the box.
Database: PostgreSQL — boring in the best possible way.
Queue: Asynq + Redis — async ActivityPub delivery with retry logic. Workers run separately from the API.
Federation: ActivityPub — HTTP signatures, shared inbox, fan-out delivery for groups and followers.
Infra: Docker Compose — one file per instance, easy to spin up new nodes.
Everything self-hostable. No cloud dependencies. No vendor lock-in.
Still early days — but the foundation feels solid.
And yes - A lot of help fra Claude code. I decided to go all in an use big tech to fight big tech.

@sindum Is the Go package system based around or at least predominately GitHub based?
