Upsides of fediverse:

[x] Software choice

Downside of fediverse:

[x] Software choice


I run Honk ( software that is currently only reachable by the internet archive https://web.archive.org/web/20220924163856/https://humungus.tedunangst.com/r/honk )

The upside to honk is it's amusing and compact code base, the downside to honk is it's amusing code base.

To help myself and promote the wonders, have this handy meme to help you understand how honk differs from the competition

the "is your child posting X meme" but with honk

@andyd idk... honk is just a single binary, and two sqlite databases.

obvs you have to compile it, but other than that it's pretty run and play...

I mostly just spent the time to add features that I value (like avatars) back in, and while I was at it. make the codebase a little more readable to me ( a mere mortal )

Regardless, it's not a competition over who has the best fediverse software... because they are all horrifying by the looks of it ;)
