The "Lightweight" GoLang ActivityPub server is GoToSocial https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial

The better-known lightweight servers are Pleroma and fork Akkoma, written in Elixir https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma/

Some of this info I got via: https://social.treehouse.systems/@ariadne/110226729543740723

GotoSocial would be another option (also in Go with SQLite backend.) Although you'll need a front-end because it doesn't ship with one.

I think it’s worth to check out https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial It’s far from „done“ and has a lot of rough edges, but it’s easy to setup and probably good enough for a single instance!
