that’s an interesting backstory, thanks for sharing it with me
hopefully this will all be over soon, and the devs can go back to making firefish/iceshrimp/whatever a good and worthwhile fork
edit: btw, do you know if the “soapbox” they mentioned is soapbox.pub? do you have any idea what was so offensive that soapbox did that merely hosting your code on their gitlab can be used as a point in an argument?
I’m also at the wait and see with iceshrimp. my general pref software-wise here would be hajkey but atm they’re committed to being soft fork from firefish because their own dev capacity limits but if iceshrimp devs are legit working on the security issues etc then likely hajkey will move to them imo. Just wish I have enough technical acumen to play around and spin an instance whichever software it is.

I on the other hand wish I had the monetary resources to spin an instance, because I think the *keys will need twice (or more) the amount of ram lemmy needs. (from what I remember, dcx said monyet.cc has 2gb of ram.)
fundraiser means you’ll probably also find someone more qualified to set an instance up for you 😝 (because you’d surely want the fundraiser to have wide publicity, and that in turn will get you the people who are like…one-click *bam* tada! installed (I’m not there yet 😎))

@[email protected] New statement by #Hajkey dev Kaity that it will be downstream of #Iceshrimp
Thank you! I was about to share it with @[email protected] here too! Looking forward!
Soapbox sounds familiar but idk much at all. I’ll keep an eye out tho 👀👀
