fedimeteo.com is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.

Hi Stefano,
i want to mention two things about #Fedimeteo, that i noticed.
1️⃣ On hhmx.de i follow one account @hamburg@de.fedimeteo.com
But it looks like a lot of more cities will be federated to hhmx.de.
Is this really the case? Any why? Default #Snac behavior?
Could this please be changed? Feels like spam...
2️⃣ The order of information in a post is Current - Forecast Days - Forecast Hours.
For me the order Current - Forecast Hours - Forecast Days appears to be more logical and useful. What do you think?
Thanks in advance for a feedback.

Hello Fedi friends!
My child and I arrived in Italy yesterday to spend all of July at my parents' 🇮🇹
What's the first thing I did this morning? Following @milano to have weather forecasts here in my feed.
Special thanks to @stefano for creating this incredible project.
For those of you not familiar with #FediMeteo, it covers 2893 cities in 38 countries. All powered by a 4€/month VPS with #snac and #freeBSD:

Some technical details for those interested:
The entire FediMeteo setup runs on a FreeBSD VM costing around 4 euros per month. It supports almost all major EU countries (plus the UK), with just a few left to complete. Currently, there are 25 separate jails, each running its own instance of snac, totaling 25 instances. The VM load typically stays around 10%, which increases to 30% when updates are published for countries with larger numbers of cities (currently Germany and Italy). The only time the load spikes is when new countries are announced; during that time, all remote instances connect to all cities to download their details.
As for RAM usage, excluding the ZFS cache, it's currently a total of 213 MB. Yes, MB.
