Another year on an increasingly embattled and enshitified internet. The rising star of BlueSky has been somewhat tarnished as it becomes increasingly evident that its lack of decentralization and "big tent" approach has major governance shortcomings. So to anyone for whom decentralisation is more than a platitude it's gradually becoming clear that the fediverse and open web standards are the only genuine way forward.

Epicyon is designed for the expected long term future of the ActivityPub protocol. Written in the most boring trend-avoiding way possible, with few dependencies, no database to get corrupted, and suitable for running on old hardware at minimum cost. In tough environments, it can also run from an onion or i2p address and use text mode browsers with no risk from javascript exploits. While the silicon valley titans are busy pumping out toxic sludge and noxious clouds of brain-rotting information pollution, the small and meek gain advantage. Epicyon has no intention of supporting AI but does support anachronistic browsers, text to speech synthesisors and real web standards.

Epicyon is designed for the expected long term future of the ActivityPub protocol. Written in the most boring trend-avoiding way possible, with few dependencies, no database to get corrupted, suitable for running on old hardware at minimum cost, and definitely with no gratuitous "AI" features. In tough environments, it can also run from an onion or i2p address and use text mode browsers with no risk from javascript exploits. While the silicon valley titans are busy pumping out toxic sludge and noxious clouds of brain-rotting information pollution, the small and meek gain advantage. Epicyon has no intention of supporting AI but does support anachronistic browsers, text to speech synthesisors and real web standards.

Epicyon can be downloaded as a gzipped file, or you can get the latest version from the git repo. For installation instructions see the main page. To upgrade an existing instance, make sure that you have the python3-cryptography package installed then do a git pull, chown and restart the daemon.
