(calckey.social)
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

So what actually is calckey/firefish? Is it just trying to be Twitter? Is it meaningfully different to Mastodon?
It's Mastodon with a better featureset and UX. Forked from the well-established Fediverse platform MissKey. Some things I like:
Antennae are such a neat feature that I have yet to play around with.
Imo more people would use them if they were called something clearer. Saved search. Custom timeline or feed. Something like that. But yeah they are awesome
