@somnius @flip maybe @darius can chime in with his thoughts on the current status of Hometown's maintenance & such?
afaik, Hometown is explicitly about minimizing the difference between upstream & its changes–if only to reduce the maintenance burden.
i think local-only (and the speculative future feature of neighbourhood-only posting) would be a big boost, esp. given the situation today wrt online safety
@cblgh @somnius @flip Maintenance is going apace, although the latest Mastodon 3.3.0 introduced a ton of regressions and conflicts and I've been too distracted (uhhh being American) to put the time in to fix them right now. That said, I usually update to the latest upstream within a week of release.
In terms of what would happen if a feature was adopted upstream with a different implementation -- I would certainly try my best to provide a migration path.
