They really only are for Mastodon and everything else is "good luck have fun".</blockquote> Or rather, "Wait, you exist?!" And IIRC, Misskey has its own client API. Aria seems to be the shooting star mobile app for the *keys. <blockquote>Frontless servers to me are a bad idea, as things stand - despite the appeal in speeding up initial development.</blockquote> In this regard, Pleroma and Akkoma are the best of both worlds. Headless server, own client API, respective official frontend has its own repository, but you may install third-party frontends instead. And Mangane is actually (also) built against the *omas. "Akkomane" is a thing. #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Long" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Long</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=LongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLong" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLong</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=FediMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FediMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=FediverseMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FediverseMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWFediMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWFediMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWFediverseMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWFediverseMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Misskey" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Misskey</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Forkey" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Forkey</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Forkeys" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Forkeys</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=AriaApp" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">AriaApp</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Pleroma" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Pleroma</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=PleromaFE" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">PleromaFE</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Akkoma" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Akkoma</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=AkkomaFE" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">AkkomaFE</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Mangane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mangane</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Akkomane</a>

David B. HimselfRemember a few weeks ago, I tested a few Fediverse services to see what to do with this account (to move or not to move?) Here are some "results": - IceShrimp: not different enough from Firefish to justify a move (but I warmly advise if you want to move away from Mastodon to something with more features) - Sharkey: I haven't tested enough, but very probably the same conclusion as with IceShrimp. - I didn't mention it previously, but I also briefly tested Friendica. The number of features is quite amazing and a move there was tempting but... the learning curve is steeper than anywhere else, mostly because the UI is just not that good (but it can be used with many apps for basic use). One big issue, it doesn't seem possible to migrate an account there from another platform. So, that's a no. - Akkomane: I really like it, it's just a better Mastodon and if I were to choose between Mastodon and Akkomane, it'd be a no-brainer. However, while it offers things Firefish doesn't, the opposite is also true. And to make things more complicated, while I like the mobile experience with Akkomane better (it also can use lots of different apps, and the mobile experience with Firefish really is its weakest point), I still think that the desktop experience on Firefish is the best of all the platforms I know (those plugins, I'm telling you, difficult to live without them now). And because I'm old school, I mostly use social media on my computer (even more so now that I need glasses to read and write, and I rarely have them on my nose when I have a phone in my hand, but that's another topic - if you think I make a lot of typos at times, you know why). So as a conclusion. I still don't know what to do... 🤷‍♂️ Which means this account will stay on Firefish for now. But I'd like to keep on using Akkomane. But I can't justify having three active micro-blogging accounts on the Fediverse (my Mastodon account stays where it is, this whole thing doesn't concern it). What would I talk about on that third account that I don't already talk about here or on Mastodon? 🤔 <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fediverse</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Firefish" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Firefish</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/IceShrimp" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IceShrimp</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Mastodon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Friendica" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Friendica</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Akkoma" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkoma</a> <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkomane</a>

David B. HimselfTesting <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkomane</a> and <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Iceshrimp" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Iceshrimp</a> : After a couple of days trying both, one thing that's obvious right away is that Iceshrimp is just too similar to Firefish to justify a move there. I'm hearing there's a major overhaul coming. I'll check it out then, but right now, there is no point (actually, I am becoming a fan of Firefish's new feature: an auto-switch for language, very useful for people like me who post in several languages) I really like Akkomane so far, but I don't love it. As far as I know, the only features it has that <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Firefish" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Firefish</a> doesn't have are the ability to use different clients (especially useful on mobile, the mobile experience with Firefish is not the best) and the ability to follow hashtags (something sorely missing in the Misskey-verse - yes, I know there are antennas, but I want followed hashtags in my main feed, not on a separate one). Is it enough to justify a move (and leave the Misskey-verse and its amazing desktop UI - I have become a huge fan of the widgets)? I do not know. Also, I'm not a big fan of replies not being threaded. Okay, that's all for now. I'll keep testing Akkomane, but right now, I'm unsure if I should move. And what about having one more Fediverse account? Hmmm... I already have my Mastodon account (and this one is not going anywhere), I'm not sure if it's a good idea to have three active accounts (unless I separate French and English content like I used to do on Twitter? Well, I stopped doing this for a reason) <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a>

David B. HimselfHi, this is your friendly neighborhood David B. Himself. Over the next few days, I'll be testing <a class="hashtag" href="https://akkomane.social/tag/akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkomane</a> (and possibly move here?) So don't be surprised by any crossposting, following, and more. (I'm also testing <a class="hashtag" href="https://akkomane.social/tag/iceshrimp" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IceShrimp</a> there: <a class="u-url mention" href="https://iceshrimp.social/@DavidBHimself" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@DavidBHimself</a> )

David B. HimselfNo, I don't have doppelgangers, nor a multiple personality disorder (that I know of) but I guess the best way to know if I should move to <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkomane</a> or <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Iceshrimp" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Iceshrimp</a> (or stay on <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Firefish" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Firefish</a>) is to actually use them. (in my previous post on the topic, I also mentioned <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Sharkey" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sharkey</a> but I'm leaving it aside for now. While the UI is very similar to IceShrimp's, the latter feels nicer and smoother. Hard to explain.) So, over the next few days, I'll be juggling three accounts (crossposting and/or boosting). The current one as well as <a href="https://akkomane.social/users/DavidBHimself" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@DavidBHimself@akkomane.social</a> and <a href="https://firefish.city/@DavidBHimself@Iceshrimp.social" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@DavidBHimself@Iceshrimp.social</a> Feel free to follow them. I'll also very likely export my follow list over there to populate timelines. Stay tuned for the mess that's going to happen in the next few days, and hopefully some conclusions in a week or two???

David B. HimselfOh, another con against Firefish: it turns out that 3,000 characters is sometimes too short... So, after typing this (to get your ideas if you have any, but also to sort mine) it seems that <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Akkoma" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkoma</a> / <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkomane</a> is calling me, right? Yes, but I also love the MissKey forks, they're such an amazing and original way to use the <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a>. Hmmm.... Any informed opinion from people who know those platforms well, even possibly have followed a similar path? Tagging a few people whose opinions on such issues have always been a great help (you all basically taught me everything about the <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fediverse</a> beyond Mastodon): <a href="https://firefish.city/@reiver" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@reiver</a> <a href="https://atomicpoet.org/users/atomicpoet" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@atomicpoet@atomicpoet.org</a> <a href="https://social.wedistribute.org/users/damon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@damon@social.wedistribute.org</a> <a href="https://social.wedistribute.org/users/deadsuperhero" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@deadsuperhero@social.wedistribute.org</a> (2/2)

David B. HimselfMaybe, it's time to leave <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Firefish" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Firefish</a> after all (a couple of weeks ago, it seemed alive and well, but a few bugs are showing up more and more often. Now, it's the search bar that is acting up. Now the question is where to move? (and this is where my chronic indecisiveness is kicking in) I have a few options. 1. Stay on Firefish after all. - Pros: That will save me time and energy. I have a wonderful admin on my instance. If it's actually actively maintained by the new owners, maybe nice things will come out of it (the automatic language selector seems new and unique to Firefish, right?) - Cons: There have been bugs appearing lately and they give me bad flashbacks from last year when firefish.social imploded. A feeling of hanging on to a sinking ship (a sunken ship?) 2. Another <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Misskey" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Misskey</a> fork, either <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/IceShrimp" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IceShrimp</a> or <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Sharkey" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sharkey</a>. - Pros: Similar to Firefish but more alive I could move all my old posts to the new platform. - Cons: Well, first, the fact that they're hard to tell apart from each other doesn't help making a choice. Do I really need that many customization options? Regarding the question above, one reason I'd like to stick with a Misskey fork is the "channels" function. It's basically a mini-private forum on the instance. And I have the crazy dream of bringing my non-terminally-online friends to the <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a>, and that would be awesome if we all shared the same instance, and also have a private section but... And that's a big "but." I tried and I have yet to convince a single one of them to give a shot to this idea. So maybe I'm wasting my hopes with this pipe dream. Another con for the Misskey forks is that you can't follow hashtags, which is one of my favorite functions on <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Mastodon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a> and that is sorely missing on Firefish, IceShrimp, and Sharkey. 3. <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Akkoma" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkoma</a>, especially <a href="https://firefish.city/tags/Akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkomane</a> - Pros: It's lightweight, it's sleek, and it allows long posts, and following hashtags too. You can use it with Elk and Phanpy and probably most Fediverse apps (which is not the case for the MissKey forks). If I want to self-host a solo instance, it's also the cheapest option (it matters, I'm poor these days and with the state of the Japanese economy, I doubt it'll change anytime soon) - of course, I don't have to have a solo instance. - Cons: I'd lose all my old posts. Not a terrible issue, but still a negative. It's a platform I'm not too familiar with, which is only a problem for the short term, and it seems stable and reliable long term. Also, it's silly, but I really dislike the default color of the UI (light magenta?) and I don't think I can change it. Of course, I don't have to use the default UI as I can use another app with it, but for some reason, I tend to like using the default interface when I use it on my computer (which remains the place where I use social media the most).

Jorge_IrraizozCan it be in <a class="hashtag" href="https://akkomane.social/tag/akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkomane</a> <a class="u-url mention" href="https://atomicpoet.org/users/atomicpoet" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@atomicpoet</a> ? <a href="https://www.threads.net/@threads/post/C6wWS4SOFMV/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.threads.net/@threads/post/C6wWS4SOFMV/</a>

Kristian SpeakingDo I have an rss-feed for my posts on <a class="hashtag" href="https://falk.city/tag/akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#akkomane</a>? <a class="hashtag" href="https://falk.city/tag/akkoma" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#akkoma</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://falk.city/tag/mangane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mangane</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://falk.city/tag/akkomangane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#akkomangane</a>

Kristian SpeakingCan anyone help me with ways to fix this on my new <a class="hashtag" href="https://falk.city/tag/akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#akkomane</a> instance? For context, I'm both admin and owner. Maybe you know what's going on, <a class="u-url mention" href="https://firefish.lol/@reiver" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@reiver</a> ?

xepherTrying out a self-hosted <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Akkomane" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkomane</a> instance using <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/SpaceHost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SpaceHost</a> and think I’ve found the first missing feature coming from <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a>: I’m not able to hide posts from accounts I put into lists from my home feed.I use this quite a bit for creating news lists and those accounts can be pretty chatty so I don’t want it all over my home feed. Mastodon is able to do this, so I assume this is a limitation of Akkoma.

Chris TrottierYou know why I write long single posts instead of multiple posts of a thread containing 500 character posts each that are replies to each other?Because people don’t actually read threads. Instead, they read one post in the thread, make a reply – completely oblivious to the context of the thread. This is why my <a class="hashtag" href="https://atomicpoet.org/tag/akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkomane</a> server has a 5,000 character limit default. I make good use of those characters too. Sure, sometimes people occasionally complain because my posts are long. However, the amount of bad replies I receive have gone down significantly. For that reason, I sure love more characters. I’m using 669 of them on this very post! It’s fantastic!

nullpotentialAny guides for how to deploy a selfhosted <a href="https://catodon.social/tags/akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#akkomane</a>? I deploy applications using docker, but I'm not quite sure how that would work between two applications.

Chris TrottierJust an update: <a href="http://akkomane.social" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">akkomane.social</a> is successfully hosting 34 total users.With 1vCPU and 2GB of RAM, performance has been stable and I’ve encountered few errors.I’ve heard from other <a class="hashtag" href="https://akkomane.social/tag/akkomane" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Akkomane</a> admins that 2GB of RAM can handle 50 active accounts, but we’ll see!

Rufus J. Cooter<a href="https://social.polotek.net/@polotek" class="u-url mention">@polotek</a> Just curious: have you checked out <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/akkomane" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#akkomane</a> at all? <a href="https://atomicpoet.org/users/atomicpoet" class="u-url mention">@atomicpoet</a> has been doing some evangelizing, and it sounds like it might have lots of advantages for the self-hosters...
