snac is fun. I like GoToSocial in that its just a mastodon backend. Its a little more "heavy weight" than snac2 but its super easy to compile and run. At least on bare metal https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/getting_started/installation/metal/

I was also made aware of "bloat" a mastodon front-end, but I couldn't get it to work with links2.

Very true! I use toot tui to work in the terminal with mastodon, but its not a good links2 alternative.

links2 will work (somewhat) with GoToSocial. Thanks for the links, thats cool!

Now I just need to find something for lemmy/lemmy style sites...

not sure if it will work with from an external instance, but lemmy.sdf.org has a links2 compatible front-end at https://old.lemmy.sdf.org/

I just like how toots looks:

You're most welcome. If you come across any other useful things for the links2gang lifestyle, I'd love to hear about them.
