testing, to fediverse

i just stopped donating to firefish dev t1c

they have shown a tremendous amount of disrespect and falsehood, eventually even daring to publicly attack me with false accusations, only to limit my acc on stop.voring.me to the home timeline without further note > when this happened some months ago, i was laughing because it felt like kindergarten edition of fedi drama

what is worse: back then, t1c threw overboard the principle not to federate with government-run instances, and t1c declared zero interest in the rise of fascism in germany, thereby giving leeway to apologetic posts on their instance calckey.social (now firefish.social)

when i started donating, i felt both happy and proud to support a small fediverse project which had managed to attract contributors and creators from all over the world > when i learned that t1c would occasionally face problems receiving donations in currencies other than usd, i ensured to donate in usd btw

i have felt for quite some time that the calckey/firefish community is not the right place for me, and i am saddened by the direction which the calckey/firefish project has taken

seeing kainoa's recent begpost reminds me of how t1c has shown disregard for donors in the past

I hope it's running properly.

https://bostonsocial.online is now running Firefish!! Whoopie! So excited, and so tired. 🎉❤️

I hope it's running properly.

I still have some minor things to do

I couldn't update the Calckey instance. I kept getting all sorts of errors so I decided to just rebuild the server and attach the database to it, pray that it was compatible, and here we are. Long day.

Thanks @kainoa for creating this fantastic software!

Am considering setting up an instance for North UK.

This will probably be a (formerly ) because it is just so cool. Can still read and respond to Mastodon messages as well as folk on other Fediverse systems.

Trying to gauge how much interest there might be.

Could everyone give this a boost to reach as many as possible.

, née , has issues, unfortunately. Most times I try to use my account now on firefish.social there is something that goes wrong, or is too slow to be useable. Like right now. Refreshing the home timeline produces just internal errors.

It could be such a nice piece of software!

Wondering if with the transition from to , the backend to restore posts from a / backup is finally working. (Last time I tried, the system got stuck hard) @thatonecalculator @kainoa

"Your server’s administrators are responsible for moderation and for keeping your local community safe, and of course as a user you get tools to block/mute or report anyone possibly harassing you. But the Fediverse is in general a much safer and friendlier space than most mainstream social media, because moderation is handled by real people caring about their communities, instead of bots or overworked employees."

The quest for purity in the Fediverse creates drama and fragmentation.

In short, / admins made odd decisions.

  • Pitching a name that creates confusion re: trademark (Firefox and more).
  • Moving their repo to a Gitlab hosted by alt-right people (resolved).
  • The main dev boosted a neutral post by an (alleged) harasser. Contradictory screenshots and clarifications circulate.

The project emphasizes it values diversity. But ways depart. And we have a new fork, .

I detect a great disturbance in the force - wait, no that's just .

Not sure what's happening there, but I assume the big flurry of follows from there is a instance firing up, or clearing a backlog or something?

Edit: Yes - confirmed it's a rebranding in progress.

Hi @milan sag mal, Du hast doch Deine Instanz auf upgedatet. Gibt es dazu ne Anleitung? In der Doku habe ich bis jetzt nischte gefunden. Wie aufwändig war es?

mho, to fediverse German

"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.
