Akkoma

This is a fork of Pleroma, which is a microblogging server software that can federate (= exchange messages with) other servers that support ActivityPub. What that means is that you can host a server for yourself or your friends and stay in control of your online identity, but still exchange messages with people on larger servers. Akkoma will federate with all servers that implement ActivityPub, like Friendica, GNU Social, Hubzilla, Mastodon, Misskey, Peertube, and Pixelfed.Akkoma is written in Elixir and uses PostgreSQL for data storage.Differences with PleromaAkkoma is a faster-paced fork, it has a varied and potentially experimental feature set tailored specifically to the corner of the fediverse inhabited by the project creator and contributors.This should not be considered a one-for-one match with pleroma; it is more opinionated in many ways, and has a smaller community (which is good or bad depending on your view)For example, Akkoma has:Custom Emoji reactions (compatible with misskey)Misskey-flavoured markdown supportElasticsearch and Meilisearch support for searchMastodon frontend (Glitch-Soc and Fedibird flavours) supportAutomatic post translation via DeepL or LibreTranslateA multitude of heavy modifications to the Pleroma Frontend (Pleroma-FE)The “bubble” concept, in which instance administrators can choose closely-related instances to make a “community of communities”, so to sayAnd takes a more opinionated stance on issues like Domain blocks, which are enforced far more on Akkoma.
