@mia @_elena @stefan @ben @pancakes the functionality of friendica but sharkey’s ui would help bring in people currently still stuck in facebook

@ben @pancakes @_elena @stefan @mia I actually looked into making my own alternate frontend for friendica and the main issue I found was one of the endpoints, the one to make a new account wasn’t exposed as a rest call but had to be done through friendica’s ui.

Quick note: I'm running out to pick up my child from nursery school - I will be offline for the rest of the day (until she's asleep).

For Sharkey power users: I hope my post did it justice.

What is next? I really want to test drive Hubzilla, Misskey, Akkoma and PeerTube, learn how to create bots with @stefan and self-host my own instance via #yunohost πŸ€—

@_elena @stefan I've recently set up my own peertube instance ( peertube.existiert.ch/ ) and I like it to share some of my videos and stream to some friends... but so far I haven't found any content I really want to follow on there. I'd be happy if someone knows creators in the vain of "markiplier" or "Hand of Blood" (fun game content), or edutainment creators in the vain of Veritasium or MinutePhysics, which I could follow!

@_elena@mastodon.social Basically, you're saying to Sharkey what I've been saying to all Misskey-type services for 2 years, only in German.
It's nice to have another comrade-in-arms who likes these services.

There's one fear I'd like to allay: that Sharkey will cease to exist. Because Sharkey is compatible with Misskey, but also with the other services of the Misskey family.
you can also import all your posts from mastdon and have them visible in your timeline again (at least this is possible in the Firefish line)

my favourite tools, apart from the antennas, include Drive, where I can also sort my images/files by folder, but also Clips, which I use as a bookmark folder and also sorts everything nicely into folders.

All great things that make life in the #fediverse easier

@_elena ah interesting, I always wondered what those instances with reactions are!
I'll have to check out sharkey and misskey and see if I can set up my own server and maybe migrate my mastodon to it and shut down my mastodon. Since it's only me here that shouldn't be a problem. Maybe I have to use an temporary home for my account while I do that though.
The "Tweetdeck" style UI is also available on native mastodon btw, you can change to it in your settings with "Enable advanced web interface"

I thought firefish was super promising but it never stabilized so I deleted my account there.

Im already established now but sharkey does sound cool.

Maybe thats the place we should be nudging people to who are tow-dipping in the fediverse.

@ike We really need to promote other fediverse platforms beyond Mastodon, especially while Mastodon is still working in proper safety features.

Here's something relevant I just posted a moment ago.

@ike@pkm.social @_elena@mastodon.social @pancakes@mastodon.lol @ben@werd.social @mia@flipboard.com @stefan@stefanbohacek.online I am totally behind this. I think you can better illustrate to new users how the fediverse and instances work from the way Sharkey displays notes with the op's instance. Also, the character limits tend to be higher, so that's a big selling point.
