Sharkey.World
sharkey.world
A generic Sharkey instance for anyone to use

Next to Mastodon.world and Lemmy.world I am also running Calckey.world. This was running Calckey, a Misskey fork. That was re-branded to FireFish (that’s the danger of running sites with the software name in the URL… :-) ).

Unfortunately due to circumstances the FireFish software will no longer be maintained. Therefore I was looking for another Misskey fork that could replace it, and I found Sharkey. This looks really nice.

So being who I am, I registered https://sharkey.world and installed it. It still needs some configuring and branding, but it works and you can use it! (As you will see it currently uses the Calckey.world branding)

I will write a brief how-to on migrating from Calckey to Sharkey and hope the calckey.world users will migrate.

      Yeah somewhere between twitter and facebook clone, more like Mastodon. But open-source and federated, like Lemmy.

      Kinda like Mastodon (micro-blog site) but with way more functionality and super-confusing feature names.

      Unfortunately none of the -keys that I know of allow you to follow hashtags so it’s an instant nonstarter for me.

            I’ve never used it but it is my understanding that it pretty much the same thing with more functionality.

              It’s not. It’s a different thing with different functionality. You can’t follow hashtags and it doesn’t work properly.

    Which one as the best potential :
    (between Lemmy, Mastodon or Sharkey)
    1-for users,
    2-for moderators,
    3-for administrators,
    4-for developers ?

      For moderators surely Mastodon. For admins too… For users: that’s a taste-thing. I’m not a developer so can’t say…

      The question doesn’t make sense. They are projects with different purposes. and what kind of potential you are asking? popularity, ease of use, mass market, etc?
