In a better world, this (or one of its forks) would have taken off instead of Mastodon. It makes a way better case for itself by its distinct features compared to Mastodon, which is too easy to ignore (by everyday people) as Nerd-Twitter.
Comment on What's a niche fediverse software you like?

Misskey. It’s not exactly niche, but it has a lot of cool features.
For example:
- Drive features to reuse your image or other media.
- Misskey games, so far only have Bubble Game and Go.
- Groups
- Antenna, basically subscription for any post with your set of rules.
- Playful profile decoration, similiar to Discord/Steam.

Misskey (I use sharkey, a fork of it) is really good. Groups don’t federate yet iirc.
Its frontend is extremely slow though.

And the search is awfull.
how ever the UI is pretty

The search doesn’t even work on my instance.
Lemmy is the only fediverse software with a good search imo.

even on mastodon which is relatively big the search is jst bad.

I’m also on Sharkey. It’s just more fun that Mastodon. Also feels a touch more queer, in a wonderful way.
