Catodon joining the Threadiverse
-
Not unless someone is gonna bother to explain what the difference is and why it even exists.
See, this is a big problem with all the stuff on the fediverse: people announce all of these strangely named projects, but no one, not anywhere, will ever bother to explain what any of it is or why any of it exists. They just assume everyone already knows, and it’s very very, very annoying. And if anyone does bother to link to a project page, it’s extremely long and complicated with 20 to 30 paragraphs, or it’s buried deep in some long long long chain of extremely circumspect and vague posts.
Just be clear, concise, and direct about what the project is, what it does, and why it exists. Please. For once. Just tell me what the hell it is and why it exists in one single simple sentence. THE VERY FIRST SENTENCE. PREFERABLY THE HEADLINE.
To my knowledge, Catodon was started by @panos@catodon.rocks, who for the longest time was a Firefish advocate, but was disappointed by the bait and switch pulled by those devs.
With the advent of AI, Panos is taking it upon himself to fork Firefish and build the social media experience he wanted all long.

Ok, so I give you credit for trying but you didn’t actually explain:
- how is this different from mastodon?
- WHAT SPECIFIC FEATURES ARE DIFFERENT FROM MASTODON?
- how, SPECIFICALLY, is it different from Mastodon?
- IN WHAT WAY, does it function differently than Mastodon?
- WHY SHOULD ANYONE GIVE A SHIT?
Interpersonal drama is something that nobody cares about. Put that shit on your Tumblr so no one can read it.

I'm confused. What's the difference between mastodon and other such platforms mentioned in this thread? I thought these mastodon like platforms were the equivalent of twitter on the fediverse
Usually the UI, character limit per post (mastodon is 500, misskey-like tend to be 5000) and reactions - misskey lets instances create custom reactions, like those you can see on discord servers

For now, Catodon is a part of the Threadiverse at the same degree as Mastodon. At this moment it allows following/subscribing a community only.
Doesn't Mbin also support Mastodon?
On Lemmy/Piefed I've only ever subscribed to communities.
Lemmy has comically bad integartion with Mastodon. I tried to make a template with some basic rules to only post once, but this approach was no where near close to being viable.

Indeed, Mbin allows following Mastodon et co. accounts

Any way to customize the layout? I'd rather to not have rounded corners on everything.

Oh, nice. Thank you!

@panos@community.nodebb.org Was not able to resolve the post, but I don't think it's your fault, lemmy.world turned on CF bot protection and it's blocking me :(

@panos@community.nodebb.org I'm also not able to fetch it directly
https://catodon.rocks/notes/akv4dziup8bz00hy sends HTTP 401 to my local dev instance. Might be because it's a localhost address.
