@atomicpoet changed it to Soapbox FE and Soapbox BE a year or two ago. I know I've never found a single Lemmy user or group either on the mostr bridge nor on my gleasonator.com account.

Can you tell me a little bit more about how Soapbox FE and Soapbox BE differ? I’m out of the loop on that one.

  @atomicpoet I'm not certain, but I believe @alex just decided to call his back end Soapbox BE (Back End) because it was getting too confusing to explain to folks that Soapbox was a Front end for Akkoma. What the difference is between the version of Akkoma you are running and the most current version of the Soapbox backend, I don't know

    Got it. So it’s less confusing to users who don’t know what an FE or BE are, but it’s more confusing for new admins who do.
    
    “Instead of running Soapbox on Soapbox, I’ll run Fedibird on Soapbox. Scratch that. I’ll run vanilla Pleroma with Soapbox instead of Soapbox.”
