-        <p class="intro">It's becoming clearer that the ActivityPub protocol might be the long term future of social media, with even the incumbents either starting to support it or making noises to that effect. There might be challenges which go along with becoming the mainstream. Perhaps some of the larger Mastodon instances could be bought by BigTech companies, or their admins be recruited as employees under corporate control. But whatever shenanigans may occur Epicyon has been designed with the assumption that the wider network is hostile and it should be able to continue regardless. More small instances rather than giant monoliths are the way to go.</p>

There might be challenges which go along with becoming the mainstream. Perhaps some of the larger Mastodon instances could be bought by BigTech companies, or their admins be recruited as employees under corporate control. Another possible hazard would be if the protocol becomes endlessly extensible, creating a situation of <i>infinite or unknowable attack surface</i>. But whatever shenanigans may occur Epicyon has been designed with the assumption that the wider network is hostile and it should be able to continue regardless. More small instances rather than giant monoliths are the way to go.</p>

        <p class="intro">Epicyon can be downloaded as <a href="epicyon.tar.gz">a gzipped file</a>, or you can get the latest version from the <a href="https://gitlab.com/bashrc2/epicyon">git repo</a>. For installation instructions see <a href="index.html">the main page</a>. 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.</p>
