Akkoma removed Soapbox as a supported frontend: https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma/pulls/376

Which is fine, because these things don’t go together anyway. But for some reason they don’t say the word “Soapbox” in the issue title or description.

THE FRONTEND WHO MUST NOT BE NAMED.

Remove legacy references to FE that is not officially supported

Hey all, I noticed this was in still the docs from pleroma and I'm not sure but I don't think it's officially supported.

@strawFWIW Soapbox supports Akkoma :gleason_shrug:

Add support for Akkoma (!1876) · Merge requests · Soapbox / Soapbox · GitLab

Summary Adds support for Akkoma. Akkoma sucks and you shouldn't use it. But in case you are, this way of supporting...

@anemone@strawIt would still work, it would just fall back to a limited featureset.

@Arcana@strawI admit it. Akkoma makes me cope and seethe. Mainly because people write “Mastadon/Pleroma/Akkoma” and ignore the software I built for 2 years because men can’t become women.

@straw maybe you should spend more time on PR and less time adding weird ideological remarks to everything you do?

People favor professionalism not rants about the things living rent free in your head

@Arcana@straw@GargronThere’s actually nothing I can do to make @Gargron love me. I’m already marked as evil. So I may as well be a little transphobic if it makes me feel better.

@Gargron@straw what does the developer of a different software have to do with this? I’m genuinely confused

Hard times create strong men
Strong men create good times
Good times create weak men
Weak men cope and seethe over trannies

@Arcana@Gargron@strawYou know I don’t actually hate trannies right? I think the idea of it is illogical and based on stereotypes. On an individual level, I’m extremely nonjudgmental. The reason everyone says I’m a transphobe is because I wrote an article challenging the ideas.

You don't belong in the list of ActivityPub software because you didn't make any. You simply wrote a frontend.

@SuperDicq@Arcana also, no one writes Mastodon/Pleroma/Akkoma. they write Mastodon/Pleroma/Misskey. those are the bases for most forks, you can maybe add GNU Social, Friendica and Diaspora although it doesn't use ActivityPub

Literally this retard’s post does it right here: https://minidisc.tokyo/notes/92fuwugb63

SuperDicq (@SuperDicq)

I'd like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Mastodon, is in fact the federated universe or as I've recently taken to calling it, the Fediverse.

Reminder that he also pushed a bunch of changes with no description which are pretty much intended to break custom MRFs such as blockbots and delete rejection.
