I build Catodon.

He/him/They/them, neurodivergent, anarchist, polyamorous

the state must fall
Hello hello! I'm testing out Catodon. I've been on several Misskey forks before: Calckey, Firefish, Sharkey. They are my favourite fedi software. Now I'm testing out Catodon, because I'm curious.

So, this is a test account. I'm not planning to move servers currently. But who knows...
@sproid forgot to add that now right click on the like button stabilizes the reactions picker, and changes focus to the search field so you can write straight away. I didn't start with the DMs yet, got distracted (of course) with smaller issues - now the Accounts timeline has a filter to show reposts too, and the "Select user" popup for mentions/DMs is forgiving if you accidentally include @ to your search request. Oh I also changed the timeline options icon, I was not happy with the three dots, they are also used elsewhere and I felt that they didn't make the feature draw the user's attention (as it should). Just updated catodon.rocks with those =)
Alright, back to development, en route for Catodon 26.04! I've already started working on a Direct messages page, but I took a break today and tackled other unrelated issues on my list. First of all, "preview post" now works correctly, in all (or most) cases! External URL previews are displayed in the same way the actual post will show them. Polls are shown in the preview as well.

Also some other minor thingies here and there: "Follow" button for blocked users/users who have blocked you is now greyed out, instead of appearing as if it's working. Push notifications for DMs show "xxx sent you a direct message" instead of "xxx mentioned you". Admins and moderators get a visual clue in the left sidebar when there are unresolved reports. These are all live on catodon.rocks. Back to the DM feature =)

@theresmiling Of course you can make one, I'd love to hear your feedback =) @deathkitten
@germ yes yes i'm only joking =) Basically the advantage of Custom feeds/Antennas is that you can customize them much more, they can also follow words etc. But the tags.pub project is pretty cool too, and super easy to use: You just follow for example @[email protected] - that's it!
Bwahahaha! Do I want to WHAT? BWAHAHAHAHA!
Of course, of course on the day I released the first (afaik) Misskey fork where you can follow hashtags in Home, Evan would launch a service for everyone on fedi to follow hashtags. Just my luck smh 😁

I really missed this - getting feedback on fedi software and collectively finding ways to make it work better for whomever uses it! I loved it on Firefish, and I love it even more now with Catodon, where I have total freedom to change things. It obviously doesn't have the same impact as Firefish (yet? 😼), but Calckey/Firefish took several months to take off - in the first couple of months very few people noticed it. Even if it's for ten people though, to me it's still a magic thing. Thank you for sharing this with me =)
@germ perfect!
Well you can always DM me, but it would be even better if you wrote them in our matrix room (if you have a matrix account), maybe others will want to give their opinion as well =)
