Yooo, please don't follow @hack13 it is just for testing some @FurryFediverse code I am working on to support #Misskey#Calckey instances :blobfoxgooglyholdingitsheadinitshands:
@cliffwade The main account I use is this one, while my second account is @queenslight, since I finally found a decent accessible interface for #Misskey called WhaleBird.
I am planning to join a #FunkWhale instance too, for sharing random AI TTS skits I do from time to time.
People are really looking at the Fediverse with Western eyes and aren't considering the fact that in Japan, #Misskey is many peoples' first exposure to the Fediverse.
#Calckey is building on what Misskey has already made. But really, Calckey is exposing the West to the world of *key apps.
But it's also not entirely @gruber's fault because the media doesn't really talk about the Fediverse, and when they do, it's as a synonym for "Mastodon".
How would @gruber know about the massive development efforts to build more user-friendly alternatives to Mastodon?
No one in the media talks about the growth of *key apps, and how they're now the #2 most used Fediverse platform.
The main reason why I can't move from my current #Pleroma installation to anything else ( #Akkoma, #Misskey, #Calckey, #Hubzilla or #Friendica ) is that none of them accept importing an existing backup from a different service into a brand-new account. At most you can migrate your address but not your posts.
Misskey turns their off by default (you can easily turn it on within settings) & Mastodon requires you to implement the #ElasticSearch code on your instance. I use search on both of my solo instances.
Misskey does not have an official app, but #MissRirica replicates most (if not all) of the options on the web interface (something most official apps on other platforms can not do yet).
I’d like to thank everyone on calckey.social for the overwhelming love and support.
When I woke up this morning, I had no idea that interest in #Calckey would pick up this much. It’s been a challenge getting everything up to our preferred standard, but we’ve made significant progress.
I’d also like to thank all the other Calckey servers who’ve picked up our slack. And the entire dev team deserves praise for making software that so many people love.
It seems like it is a rewrite/alternative server to the mastodon server. Looks to be written in Rust. It is a fork of #misskey, which seems to be written in typsescript
But since it uses ActvityPub, it's interoperable with Mastodon
Seems like you can't migrate your Mastodon account over.
So basically an alternative microblogging interface to the fediverse with different server software.
I have an announcement for all Sakurajima (.moe and .social), Urusai.social, and Miruku.cafe users!
I just learned something that every #fediverse citizen user should know: When looking at a post or profile from an external instance that is not using the same platform as your instance, you should look at that post or profile on that instance. The reason why that is so important to know is because that not all instances will not display the complete post or profile of an external instance.
I learned this earlier today while discussing a few bugs with @panos and @naskya, mainly about reactions not going through.
I wanted to let everyone know about this because this is very important, especially since we're on different platforms: Urusai.social and Sakurajima.moe use glitch-soc (a variation of #Mastodon), meanwhile Sakurajima.moe and Miruku.cafe use #Calckey and #Foundkey (both variations of #Misskey) respectively. With everyone using different platforms and thinking that #ActivityPub would transfer everything over, there's bound to be misunderstandings.
That's why I wanted to let everyone know about this. #ThankYou all.
