Running an ActivityPub server on your phone might sound complicated, but it doesn't have to be.

Running an ActivityPub server on your phone might sound complicated, but it doesn't have to be. You can just let it run with automatic maintenance, or dive into all the settings if that's your thing. Monitor storage, schedule backups, see what activities are taking up space, whatever level of control you want. Some might never open these screens, others check them daily. And that's totally fine. We made it automatic for everyone, but added all the tools for power users. That's your server #Holos

@HolosSocial sounds really interesting ... can I connect with client apps (e.g. Fedilab) and from other devices?

Your server runs on your phone itself. It speaks ActivityPub so it federates perfectly, but Fedilab and other apps expect Mastodon APIs which Holos doesn't expose. Right now Holos is both your server and your app in one. We'll always stay ActivityPub compatible, that's the whole point. It's just a different approach to running your own instance. -
