What even are the frontends other than Mastodon? I'm sticking with CI as my main instance for as long as it's up, but I'd been meaning to set up an instance for a project I've been working on anyway - if Masto's future is uncertain it seems unwise to go that route? But it's also the only one I'm familiar with >_>
@revengeday@mircoxi I mean, there's quite a few different applications that use AP as a base protocol - "front ends" as you called them. Off the top of my head, I can think of
Misskey/Calckey/Firefish/IceShrimp
Akkoma
Pleroma
Pixelfed
Bookwyrm
PeerTube
Some of them are applications that are built for a specific genre or type of content, but they can all talk to each other. Plus there's multiple forks of Mastodon (Home Town and glitch-soc, which we run on CI). And there's a few more that are out there as well.
