Reflecting on the firefish/calckey "moment"
which was about a year ago now, I can't help but suspect it was a small event with wider implications on the dominance of #mastodon in the #fediverse
I think it was the last chance to direct the twitter migration energy into discovering new/different fedi platforms.
And it was blown, with alt-social in a weird steady/waiting state that's smaller I suspect, than what many hoped for.

To me, FireFish got replaced by IceShrimp. Good looking interface, nice features (Antenna) and regular releases.
Yea it’s descendant too. There’s also sharkey and catodon too.
IIRC, Catodon development is currently halted (https://catodon.social/notes/9rl77swzw25jjq7x).
Sharkey I don't know
There really is a whole *keys forks lore ha ha
The problem is that Misskey code is bad. This is the main reason the forks exist at all. Iceshrimp is rewriting from scratch in C# and it's my main hope for the *keys.
I did not know this about iceshrimp and c#! Any links to their reasoning etc?
Sorry anout the delay. The siteis iceshrimp.net
Huh. Thanks!!
