Had some fun today installing @hollo because you can never have enough fediverse accounts, right? I'm definitely not avoiding the real world with this distraction. 👀

Hollo is a single / low user platform for the fediverse. It runs on the @fedify framework and supports quote posts, markdown, and emoji reactions.

I went off the beaten path a bit and customized the composer file. Here's my notes on the install process.

Been on the TestFlight of this one. @feeeed is incorporating content from everywhere. While the configuration options says “Mastodon Handle” any fediverse handle I’ve thrown at it works so far.

PeerTube. Lemmy. Firefish. IceShrimp. Friendica. Threads. All alongside blog feeds, Reddit, YouTube, news services, personal photos, birthday reminders and more. The only thing missing is the ability to interact - like or reply direct from the interface. ❤️🥳

Are there any Android apps that have a good UI for both Reddit-like (e.g. kbin/lemmy) and Twitter-like (e.g. Mastodon) posts?

I use Tusky, which is great for Mastodon and can see kbin posts, but doesn't support them as well as the kbin web UI.

Any suggestions?

While the mastodon community has a meltdown over new verbiage attached to a post visibility setting, #Sharkey is offering up seasonal screen effects.

Sometimes you don’t need a good reason. Just add something random that brings a little joy to the table.

Trying out Phanpy as a progressive web app (single webpage shortcut) but I don’t think it’s my preference for phone use. I dislike so much wasted screen. I noticed that MetaText is the same. I suppose that may be a big reason I prefer IceCubes. IceCubes has been acting slow and buggy lately tho 😢 — and I do prefer some of the Phanpy interface. I will try using it on my laptop tomorrow.

Heads up to #FediDev community.

The instance fedi.software, where many fediverse apps have setup their brand accounts, is a Firefish instance run by the creator, who hasn’t been accessible in the past few weeks.

Two of their other instances are already either completely down or partially down. I’m hoping they just need a break and will be back soon.

Might be a good idea to pull some backups, just in case.
