"Calckey heißt jetzt Firefish, … sonst ändert sich nüscht." 😉
Hab die Meldung mal aktualisiert:
Alles was auf Mastodon fehlt: Firefish im Fediverse mit zig Zusatzfunktionen
Die Zahl der Twitter-Alternativen wächst und wächst. Während die meisten das Vorbild ziemlich stark nachbauen, gibt es aber auch Versuche, weiterzudenken.
can everybody please do me the hardest of solids and #boost this post so that this #firefish#instance gets #federation easier? i'm just testing stuff out on my local server uwu
Right on time with the rebranding of Calckey to Firefish, firefish.tech is opening its doors too! :firefish:
As you might have already guessed, the instance is focusing on tech topics, but everyone else is welcome too. We try to create a diverse community where all voices are heard.
Come swim with us and let's make waves together! :wave:
Because this fish is hot :fire::blobcatnomfish:
@Shinra à ce que j'ai vu passer hier, il semble que comme Calckey, #Firefish est vraiment plus léger avec moins de ressources nécessaires que Mastodon. Mais ça reste plus exigeant que Plemora.
@mimoblog@Shinra ouuii 😁 Dans tous les cas, j'ai essayé pas très longtemps #Calckey, mais depuis quelques jours où l'on parle de #Firefish mon intérêt se manifeste davantage!
I should add for completeness that the existing registrations do not exactly match the provision of social networking software and services and some relevant activities in classes 38 and 45 are not registered at all, but the existing protection is broad (in particular for class 9, but this may be more a risk for the project itself, not the individual server) and close enough to consider the legal risk - a specialist lawyer will be able to do so. #calckey#firefish#trademark
A-ha, overnight (for me) what used to be #Calckey did their major release and rebranding to #Firefish. Looks very tidy, and carries a lot of features many of us have been missing.
It is, of course, a fedi server alternative to Mastodon. Unlike Mastodon, it allows importing your post history if you move from another server, as well as your followers and follows. Worth a peek, whether you're a user or a would-be admin.
calckey rebranding has never been a top priority of the calckey community > there has never been any poll on that matter, much less so regarding the project's new name firefish
calckey dev team is not so much about building a community, but it increasingly resembles a sect or a cult #calckey#rebranding#firefish
the cult is cutting off its very own roots instead of being proud of what has been achieved while sailing under the old moniker calckey - they have even deleted the project name calckey from the intro blog post on calckey.org which dates back to 26/03/2023, when calckey.org was launched #calckey#rebranding#firefish
Does drive on #calckey / #firefish apply for everything a user uploads including posts, or is this limited to images and video. Is it like something like Google Drive storage but for the instance?
I don't mind #Firefish as the new name for #Calckey - but I have to say that when I first read it I thought of #Firefox - as many in this Lemmy thread have - and seeing the new logo & colour I can't help but wonder if Mozilla will push back as part of their active protection of their trademark, a point @leigh makes. https://beehaw.org/post/6709040
Pro Tip, if your dealing with lag on Calckey/Firefish when using a Firefox based browser go to about:config and disable backdrop-filter, speeds up websites including Firefish!
